Lyrics
I keep swingin' my hand through a swarm of bees 'cause I I want honey on my table I keep swingin' my hand through a swarm of bees 'cause I I want honey on my table But I never get it right No, I never get it right I keep swingin' my hand through a swarm of bees I can't understand why they're stingin' me But I'll do what I want, I'll do what I please I'll do it again 'til I've got what I need I'll rip and smash through the hornet's nest Do you understand I deserve the best? And I'll do what I want, I'll do what I please I'll do it again 'til I got what I need I try to stick this pin through a butterfly 'cause I I like all the pretty colors But it just fell apart, so I flung it in the fire To burn with all the others 'Cause I never get it right No, I never get it right I keep swingin' my hand through a swarm of bees I can't understand why they're stingin' me But I'll do what I want, I'll do what I please I'll do it again 'til I got what I need I'll rip and smash through the hornet's nest Do you understand I deserve the best? 'Til you do what I want, I'll do what I please I'll do it again 'til I've got what I need And this time, I'll get it right This time, I'll get it right It's gonna be this time, I'll get it right God, let it be this time, I get it right So I'm cuttin' that branch off the cherry tree Singin' this will be my victory Then I See them comin' after me And they're followin' me across the sea And now they're stingin' my friends and my family And I I don't know why this is happening But I'll do what I want, I'll do what I please I'll do it again 'til I got what I need I keep swingin' my hand through a swarm of bees 'cause I I want honey on my table
