Bee charmer
Artist:nellie mckay
Songs Title:beecharmer
Sewed everything you said
Together in a thread
Repeating in my mind
Each word like a rhyme
Like a penny serenade
Looking through his song
He said the records overplayed
But where did I go wrong
You never stayed at first
Could not commit the time
Ignored all the quirks
But he still did the crime
And when he goes away
I know youll call and cry
And when he calls up to tell
Now Im gonna cry
But I know youre mine
When youre on the line
Is it something I said
Would you let him walk away
Got it stuck in my head
Dont you hear a word I say
Is it something I said
Every night the same old moan
Its ahhh, Im waiting till my Joe comes home
Everytime he asks me how I feel
When I tell him, the phone goes dead
Im the queen of QVC
Youre leaning on my ear
You mean the world to me
Though the connection isnt clear
Like my ink sputs 78s
Convenient when youre low
Feel like an antelope on a nature show
Oh no!
I guess I gotta go
But I know youre mine
When youre on the line
Is it something I said
Would you let him walk away
Got it stuck in my head
Dont you hear a word I say
Is it something I said
Everytime were on the phone
Its ahhh, Im waiting till my Joe comes home
Hey !
Cast away romance
Whats it gonna take
No knights with shiny armor
Hey !
Try a different dance
Oh, Im a real bee charmer
Well I scold and I scratched to make him stay
But he dont wanna know from me
Why that old alley cat, he runs away
Lock the door and lose the key
Is it something I said
Would you let him walk away
I got it stuck in my head
Dont you hear a word I say
Is it something I said
Every night the same trombone
Its ahhh, Im waiting till my Joe comes home
Hey !
Lets forget romance
Lets correct romance
With knights in shiny armor
Whats it gonna take
Try a different dance
Oh, Im a real bee charmer...
