(The Bees Are For The Birds) The Birds Are For The Bees Lyrics By The Newbeats

    grownups tell me
    the birds and the bees
    do other things than
    live in trees

    if you ask me what i think
    this is what i’ll say
    the bees are for the birds
    the birds are for the bees
    and i don’t care anyway

    came the honey from the bee
    birds singing in the tree
    then the wasteful people say
    it’s got nothing to do with me

    grownups tell me
    the birds and the bees
    do other things than
    live in trees

    if you ask me what i think
    this is what i’ll say
    the bees are for the birds
    the birds are for the bees
    and i don’t care anyway

    well birds and bees and abc’s
    live their lives in hives and trees
    birds don’t always live in trees
    bees don’t look like me

    grownups tell me
    the birds and the bees
    do other things than
    live in trees

    if you ask me what i think
    this is what i’ll say
    the bees are for the birds
    the birds are for the bees
    and i don’t care anyway

    so birds chirp and bees buzz
    no one cares less than i does
    i don’t care if they can fly
    it’s got nothing to do with you and i

    grownups tell me
    the birds and the bees
    do other things than
    live in trees

    if you ask me what i think
    this is what i’ll say
    the bees are for the birds
    the birds are for the bees
    and i don’t care anyway
