Hive Harmony

[joyful accordion intro, male voice] Verse 1 Old bees, they don’t come home at night, Resting on petals, out of sight. If dawn breaks, they’ll work once more, Bringing gifts to the hive’s door. Chorus Together they’re strong, a buzzing throng, In the hive, they belong. Warm and alive, they survive, Nature’s marvel, the honeybee hive. [instrumental break] Verse 2 Some seek pollen, some seek sweet, Never switching, their roles complete. Pollen for protein, nectar for power, Together they build, hour by hour. Chorus Together they’re strong, a buzzing throng, In the hive, they belong. Warm and alive, they survive, Nature’s marvel, the honeybee hive. [instrumental break] Verse 3 Yellow blooms, but orange they store, Mixed with nectar, a colorful lore. In the hive, a transformation unseen, Nature’s magic, a golden sheen. Chorus Together they’re strong, a buzzing throng, In the hive, they belong. Warm and alive, they survive, Nature’s marvel, the honeybee hive. [instrumental break] Verse 4 Through the cold, they endure, Without a flight, they stay pure. Three hundred fifty-six days they strive, In the hive, they keep alive. Chorus Together they’re strong, a buzzing throng, In the hive, they belong. Warm and alive, they survive, Nature’s marvel, the honeybee hive. Verse 5 Even in death, they give relief, Compresses for pain, a healing belief. From stings to soothes, their legacy stays, In life and beyond, they amaze. [instrumental bridge] Chorus Together they’re strong, a buzzing throng, In the hive, they belong. Warm and alive, they survive, Nature’s marvel, the honeybee hive. Verse 6 They do rest, though work is their creed, Five to eight hours, a well-earned need. At night they dream, of flowers and flight, Ready for dawn, and the morning light. Chorus Together they’re strong, a buzzing throng, In the hive, they belong. Warm and alive, they survive, Nature’s marvel, the honeybee hive. [sweet and fading instrumental outro]
