Keep your neb out John, it's none of your beeswax Make sure the honey Johnny stays in the hive We are wasps with PR, who's the Queen of the colony? It's in your best interests to keep us alive. Oh - Where's the honey, Johnny? Dancing in circles at the edge of the sun We'll be catching it, waggle dance, feet in the pollen Don't you jive with the hive Oh Johnny what have you done? Ooh-wah-ooh It's the needs of the bees, its the bees with their needs Ooh-wah-ooh Where's the honey Johnny? None of your beeswax, let's float in the weeds Chock full of nicotine! Ah you know what I mean Oh my hexagons have gone all wrong Got my wings in a rush, can't get enough of the stuff And I can't remember my way home Keep it clean for the Queen, don't you know where I've been? I've been flying too long in the sun I'll be catching it, waggle dance, feet in the pollen Bring back the honey, Johnny, what have you done? (Chorus) Buzz the tower! None of your beeswax Buzz buzz buzz Buzz the tower, buzz the tower, let's go float in the weeds Take me to your leader honey, where is the Queen? Bees knees, Bees needs, none of your beeswax Bees knees, Bees needs, dance to the sun Bees knees, Bees needs, none of your beeswax Bring back the honey Johnny, what have you done?

You can sit wherever you like, but Don't distract the autopilot For your safety and mine Please be orderly behind the line The future's bright And the past is dead Put your trust in the power of rust At least I think that's what he said Please can I politely advise you To do whatever the autopilot says Please relax and enjoy the ride As we plummet to our fury deaths We could try to fight or run but I guess it all depends If you value your freedom or comfort more It's all the same in the end The future's written And the past is gone For your safety and convenience The camera is always on Invest your every movement with meaning That's the only way we'll beat them Are you certain who you're talking to? Are you certain that you've thought this through? The past is yours but the future's dead (repeat) Ah I think that's what he said Don't distract the autopilot You can sit wherever you like, but Don't distract the autopilot Or he might bring your vehicle To a sudden stop

Orion Rising 02:45
End of November, not long to December Hiding in the driving rain I don't know why it's always such a surprise They say you can't remember pain Windchill bites, the sheets of fractal ice The falling of leaves in the grip of the freeze Orion Rising Yeah Can't believe the summer's gone Can't believe I thought I missed the cold Can't believe it's over now Can't believe the year has got so old Whatever the weather, get on your bike and ride Breathe a little deeper, summon the heat inside Watch Orion rise The air tastes sharp, the smell of things forgotten The time is ripe, but the year's gone rotten It belongs to the carrion and the insects now Until the world's wiped clean under the winter snow Leaf skeletons and mackerel skies Glowing in the embers as the daylight dies Orion Rising Yeah Can't believe the summer's gone Can't believe I thought I missed the cold Can't believe it's over now Can't believe the year has got so old There's no way of knowing where the time is going The days go by so fast The winter sun brings a warming glow, for every shadow cast Watch Orion rise
