KILLER BEES

WORDS & MUSIC:   Earl P. Reinhalter


        I.  too many bees
            and not enough flowers.
            flying cement trucks
            buzzing the towers.
               dung brick buildings
               and cinder block homes,
               concrete shoes
               for dissident drones.

   CHORUS:  killer bees are coming!
            killer bees are coming!
            noitazilivic,*
            noitazilivic,
            civilization is in reverse.
            we got older.
            we got smarter.
            life got harder:
            noitazilivic.

       II.  spelling bees
            are spelling better
            now that the words
            all have four letters.
               spokesmen set
               themselves on fire.
               but I have seen
               it all before.

   CHORUS:  killer bees are coming!
            killer bees are coming!
            noitazilivic,
            noitazilivic,
            civilization is in reverse.
            we got older.
            we got smarter.
            life got harder:
            noitazilivic.

   ENDING:  killer bees are coming!
            killer bees are coming!
            killer bees are coming!
            killer bees are coming!
