• All About Wires

When I was just a young boy, I wasn't all that smart
I didn't understand that life could imitate art
I had myself a girlfriend that was going on eighteen
She wasn't such a beauty but then I was no James Dean
We'd go out to the theaters somewhere downtown on Vine
She'd never need a reason and she always had the time
I took her to a movie where the guy loses the girl
Then we'd hit the amusement park and ride the Tilt-O-Whirl.

I was in line for the tickets when I saw my girlfriend leave
She was heading for the front door with what looked to be a bee
I ran outside to get her as they were heading down street
She yelled : 'Don't even bother 'cause you know you can't compete'
'Whatever you can offer me, this bee has got and more'
I knew right then my world would end, that bee was gonna score.

African bees, those african bees
They don't pay no taxes and do as they please
They hang out with rock groups and give 'em disease
They look in your windows and pee in your trees.

With my PhD from USC, I got a job in Hollywood
I was working for the studio and my hair was looking good
I met a red-haired beauty on the Steven Spielberg set

She was fairly new to tinsel town so she wasn't jaded yet
I took her to a screening of the new Scorcese flick
I got a call I had to take but I said I'd make it quick
I slid back in the theater but she was nowhere I could see
Then I thought I spotted her in th corner with a bee.

Oh, african bees, oh those african bees
They don't need no passports, they go where they please
You can't take their picture, they just won't say : 'Cheese'
I don't think I trust them to clean up the sleaze.

I said I can't believe that this is happening again
She said : 'I kind of like you, Jack, but only as a friend'
'That bee had shown me something that I'd never seen before'
He took my hand, gave her a shrug and buzzed me out the door.

African bees, oh those african bees
They ain't got no elbows, they're down on their knees
African bees, oh those african bees
They don't make no honey and carry the fleas
African bees, oh those african bees
They look in your window and pee in the trees.

Why am I the only one to see bees ?
