II. There’s No Such Thing as a Colony of Bees
My skull impacted flight of stairs
Ask them at the hospital why the insect wing is full ‘n’ flapping
Cicadas will cremate the city, sewers stuffed with locusts grinning
Millions of millions of millions of them ‘n’ then
Multiply the loaf of bread ‘n’ two cans of tunafish
Scraps ‘n’ wicker baskets gnawed on by the maggots
Antennae have tied you up
Motivate you from dust to dust
Archangel cricket fly around cast a shadow on this town
Headache…A headache
I’ve got it…A headache
Come get it…A headache
I got it! I got it!
Pollen melancholy in the bee colony
Flypaper-newspaper stuck in all the dangerous places
My dobsonfly head looks dapper
Stole electricity from yr bugzapper
Cicadas will cremate the city, sewers stuffed with locusts grinning
Millions of millions of millions of them ‘n’ then
Multiply the loaf of bread ‘n’ two cans of tunafish
Scraps ‘n’ wicker baskets gnawed on by the maggots
Termite-mermaid draws you nearer
All our wooden legs disappear
Deify the catastrophe ‘n’ read about it while sweetening tea
Pollen melancholy in the bee colony
Weakened demons awakened this time
Demonstrate bedtime-demontime
My skull impacted flight of stairs
Ask them at the hospital why the roach motel is full ‘n’ trapped me
Flypaper-newspaper attracted by the colorful bait
My hellgrammite head looks battered
Stole electricity from yr bugzapper
Termite-mermaid draws you nearer
All our wooden minds disappear
Deify the menagerie ‘n’ hear about it while burning CD’s
Antennae have perked you up
Motivate you from dust to dust
Archangel cricket ran aground
Close yr eyes now hands out!
