You buzzed in on a hot summer day
Sniffing around for some sweet nectar
Doing that cute little dance you do
Impressing all with your fancy moves
Sniffing around for some sweet nectar
Flitting freely from bud to blossom
Impressing all with your fancy moves
In your private garden of delight
Flitting freely from bud to blossom
Reveling in the warmth of sunlight
In your private garden of delight
Depositing pollen as you go
Reveling in the warmth of sunlight
Gathering nectar to make honey
Depositing pollen as you go
Guaranteeing garden will flourish
