Chords:G F Beekeeper sing of your frustrationG F In this litigious breezeG F Of accidental pollinationG F In this era without beesG F We keep breeding desperationG F In this era of thievesG F Who keep stealing respirationG F From the tenderest of treesG F This peculiar incantationG F Sure you heard it beforeG F Instead of breeding desperationG F Make me a pallet on your floor
