Buzz Off

If I were a bee With only one bite I’d consider very carefully Your most suitable site Should I go round Should I go flat Or perhaps should I go for What I’m looking straight at Contrary to what You may feel about me My sting is in fact A gratuity It’s not out of malice Or anger or hate But a small memento Of my psychological state Depending of course On the part that I choose Will determine the passion With which I infuse So don’t be afraid So don’t run away As nature proclaims I have to obey Injecting my venom In your delectable part Is merely a cue For me to depart And when I am gone And you tend to your sore Remember my buzz Which before you’d ignore You see that’s all I can really do For everything else, I haven’t a clue A sting or a buzz, if only you knew It’s not about me, it’s all about you.
