While the Bees Relax on By


Are the bees more significant than the Birds?

Some say yes, some say no.

Maybe its because of what the birds endure.

Is it just a show?

The birds either agree or rebel

While the bees relax on by

To them what is said is horrible

While the bees relax on by.

Although the birds and the bees have come a long way.

There's a lot of work left to be done.

The birds no longer have to obey

but the birds stil can't have any fun.

What to wear, how to look. how tall. how skinny, how fat

Birds should know how to cook, while the bees tell you that you should stay home and not attract

Any birds "in that outfit"  should  not be showing it.

Cook and clean in this dome and when you are done you can knit.

The birds are ttold that they are wrong for atracting negative attention

Ha you wondered why in so long whom I have not mentioned?

It's never the bees fault

Fr they can't help themselves if they do committ assault

the only thing the bee yells is "they shouldn't have done it; they bribed me,

it's not my fault, not one bit don't you see?

So until the days the bees are blamed

the birds contiue to be ashamed.

Change may not come I profess fearfully

Until the birds and bees are elderly.
