Lyrics: Tori Amos. The Beekeeper. Beekeeper.
Flaxen hair blowing in the breeze
It is time for the geese to head south
I have come with my mustard seed
I cannot accept that she will be taken from me
Do you know who I am? She said
"I'm the one who taps you on the shoulder"
When it's your time do not be afraid I
Promise that she will awake tomorrow somewhere
Tomorrow somewhere
Wrap yourself around the tree of life
And the dance of the infinity of the hive
(Take this message to Michael)
I will comb myself into chains
In between the tap dance clan
And your ballerina gang
I have come for the beekeeper
I know you want my, you want my queen
Anything but this, can you use me instead?
Do you know who I am? She said
"I'm the one who taps you on the shoulder"
When it's your time do not be afraid I
Promise that she will awake tomorrow somewhere
Tomorrow somewhere
In your gown with your breathing mask
Plugged into a heart machine
As if you ever needed one
I must see the beekeeper
I must see if she'll keep her alive, her alive
(Call engine 49)
I have come with my mustard seed
Do you know who I am? She said
"I'm the one who taps you on the shoulder"
When it's your time do not be afraid I
Promise that she will awake tomorrow somewhere
Tomorrow somewhere
Maybe I'm passing you by just passing you by girl
I'm just passing you by on my way
On my way I'm just passing you by
But don't be confused one day I'll be coming for you
I must see the beekeeper
It is time for the geese to head south
I have come with my mustard seed
I cannot accept that she will be taken from me
Do you know who I am? She said
"I'm the one who taps you on the shoulder"
When it's your time do not be afraid I
Promise that she will awake tomorrow somewhere
Tomorrow somewhere
Wrap yourself around the tree of life
And the dance of the infinity of the hive
(Take this message to Michael)
I will comb myself into chains
In between the tap dance clan
And your ballerina gang
I have come for the beekeeper
I know you want my, you want my queen
Anything but this, can you use me instead?
Do you know who I am? She said
"I'm the one who taps you on the shoulder"
When it's your time do not be afraid I
Promise that she will awake tomorrow somewhere
Tomorrow somewhere
In your gown with your breathing mask
Plugged into a heart machine
As if you ever needed one
I must see the beekeeper
I must see if she'll keep her alive, her alive
(Call engine 49)
I have come with my mustard seed
Do you know who I am? She said
"I'm the one who taps you on the shoulder"
When it's your time do not be afraid I
Promise that she will awake tomorrow somewhere
Tomorrow somewhere
Maybe I'm passing you by just passing you by girl
I'm just passing you by on my way
On my way I'm just passing you by
But don't be confused one day I'll be coming for you
I must see the beekeeper
Amos, Tori
