The Last of the Honey Bees Lyrics by Sam Burchfield

Graveyard Flower

2020

[Verse 1]
Leaves changing colors
Orange and red and gold
And I'm building forts
And diggin' holes
Out in the backyard
Feels like I'm in another life
Another life
[Hook]
I don't want to grow up
'Cause someday I'm gonna be dead and gone
But somethin' in my skeleton bones has got to carry on
So I carry on
[Verse 2]
Deep in the forest
The queen of the honey bees
Is making a stand
And I wanna be there
It's gonna be grand
And I wanna be there
[Hook]
I don't want to grow up
'Cause someday I'm gonna be dead and gone
But somethin' in my skeleton bones has got to carry on
So I guess I'll carry on
[Verse 3]
Mother, protect us
Shelter my brothers with their heavenly host
Holy Ghost
Refugees
Honey bees
[Hook]
I don't want to grow up
'Cause someday I'm gonna be dead and gone
But somethin' in my skeleton bones has got to carry on
You gotta carry on
Carry on, now
Yeah!
Gotta carry on!
Hey, you gotta carry on, now now now
Gotta carry on
Deep in the forest
Queen of the honey bees
Is making a stand
And I wanna be there
