Honeybee
Bif Naked Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There's been a murder
In my kitchen
I hit him hard
I hit him fast
I watched him die

And for the life of me
I'm still missing
A good excuse
Explanation
A reason why

Don't you cry for me
In the penitentiary
I did the crime
I'll do my time

And I'll be here
For another 40 years
Haunted by the buzz
Stupid honeybee

Although it hurt me
I still know better
I'm a killer
It's a fact
I can't deny

And when the deputy
Came a-looking
He took me down
I did confess
I did not lie

Don't you cry for me
In the penitentiary
I did the crime
I'll do my time

And I'll be here
For another 40 years
Haunted by the buzz
Stupid honeybee

Oh honeybee
Have mercy on me
On my knees I beg

Honeybee
You're torturing me
This must be that honeybee's revenge

Let's go!

Don't you cry for me
In the penitentiary
I did the crime
I'll do my time

And I'll be here
For another 40 years




Haunted by the buzz
Stupid honeybee

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Bif Naked's song "Honeybee" are an interesting take on the subject of guilt and remorse. The song is about a person who has killed a honeybee and is haunted by the remorse of this simple act. The opening lines, "There's been a murder in my kitchen, I hit him hard, I hit him fast, I watched him die," immediately set the somber tone of the song. The person seems to regret what they have done, but they can't explain why. They are tormented by the memory of the bee's buzzing, and this leads to intense feelings of guilt and despair. They know they must pay for their crime, but they also feel trapped in their own mind.


The lyrics also suggest that the person who committed the crime is willing to accept their punishment. They say, "Don't you cry for me in the penitentiary, I did the crime, I'll do my time." This indicates that they recognize that their actions have consequences, and they are willing to face them. However, the person is haunted by the memory of the bee and their guilt. The repeated refrain of "stupid honeybee" emphasizes this point, and the final lines of the song suggest that they will be haunted by this act for the rest of their life.


Overall, "Honeybee" is a powerful song about the consequences of our actions and the guilt that can follow us throughout our lives. It's an interesting take on the simple act of killing a bee, which most people would not give a second thought to.


Line by Line Meaning

There's been a murder
I committed a murder


In my kitchen
It happened in my house


I hit him hard
I struck him with great force


I hit him fast
The attack was sudden and swift


I watched him die
I witnessed him taking his last breath


And for the life of me
Despite everything I've thought and done


I'm still missing
I'm yet to find


A good excuse
A valid explanation for my actions


Explanation
Reasoning behind my behavior


A reason why
A motive for my crime


Don't you cry for me
Spare your tears for another


In the penitentiary
In prison for my offense


I did the crime
I am guilty of the offense


I'll do my time
I'll serve the punishment for my crime


And I'll be here
I'll stay imprisoned


For another 40 years
For decades to come


Haunted by the buzz
Tormented by the memory


Stupid honeybee
The insect that provoked my actions


Although it hurt me
Despite how much it pained me


I still know better
I'm still aware of the consequences


I'm a killer
I've taken another's life


It's a fact
It's the truth


I can't deny
I can't ignore or disregard


And when the deputy
When the police officer


Came a-looking
Investigated the crime scene


He took me down
He arrested me


I did confess
I admitted my guilt


I did not lie
I told the truth


Oh honeybee
Oh, you insect


Have mercy on me
Show me compassion


On my knees I beg
I'm begging humbly


You're torturing me
You're causing me pain


This must be that honeybee's revenge
Its retaliation for something I did


Let's go!
An exclamation
