Honey
Blue Franklin Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Good morning, honey bee
Let me taste the honey that you made for me
You think it could be better but I disagree
It tastes the sweetest, coated in some heaven
Layered thick and juicy man we know that satisfaction's guaranteed
Spill it
Head to toe make sure I feel it
Don't wipe it up not until it
Covers my body my heart and my spirit, please please
Baby it's all that I need, need
Baby I'll get on my knees, knees
Baby I'll eat it all up every drop from below to the top
And I'll do it with ease

I wanna know if I can get a taste of all that honey
I'll give you what you need my heart my soul and all my money
I wanna know if I can get a taste of what you're cooking up
Let it drip and let it fall until the honey fills my cup

I wanna know if I can get a taste of all that honey
I'll give you what you need my heart my soul and all my money
I wanna know if I can get a taste of what you're cooking up
Let it drip and let it fall with all the honey then we

Fuck what you know
Listen to your heart
Or listen to the feeling after all the weeks apart
Just let me in
Let me inside
The honeycombs forming inside of your mind
You hear about birds and the bees and it's funny
Now we got two bees and we're gonna make honey
Or you get two birds and they eat up the nectar
Two of the same sounds a whole lot better
Than a bird and a bee, wouldn't one sting the other?
They seem like they wouldn't do well as lovers
But I don't judge, no I don't
I like hornets and wasps and all bees of color
So let's come together and make some sweet
Fly outside into the heat
Back to back we pollinate
Set the table and we eat

I wanna know if I can get a taste of all that honey
I'll give you what you need my heart my soul and all my money
I wanna know if I can get a taste of what you're cooking up
Let it drip and let it fall until the honey fills my cup

I wanna know if I can get a taste of all that honey
I'll give you what you need my heart my soul and all my money
I wanna know if I can get a taste of what you're cooking up
Let it drip and let it fall with all the honey then we

Come on over, that's lookin' real tasty
Come on over, let's be lazy
Come on over, I'll eat that honey
Ay, ay, ay

Come on over, that's lookin' real tasty
Come on over, let's be lazy
Come on over, I'll eat that honey
Ay, ay, ay

I wanna know if I can get a taste of all that honey
I'll give you what you need my heart my soul and all my money
I wanna know if I can get a taste of what you're cooking up
Let it drip and let it fall until the honey fills my cup

(Come on over, that's lookin' real tasty
Come on over, let's be lazy
Come on over, I'll eat that honey
Ay, ay, ay)

I wanna know if I can get a taste of all that honey
I'll give you what you need my heart my soul and all my money




I wanna know if I can get a taste of what you're cooking up
Let it drip and let it fall with all the honey then w

Overall Meaning

This song is clearly about honey, but the lyrics are not all that literal. Instead, the honey is a stand-in for something more metaphorical, something that the singer wants desperately to taste. The tone of the song is playful and seductive, with the singer asking the object of their affection to let the sweetness they've created flow freely, covering their body and spirit. The lyrics are both suggestive and confrontational, with the singer demanding to know if they can have that sweet taste that they crave.


The lyrics also use a lot of symbolism, comparing the relationship between the singer and their lover to that of two bees. The honey is created by the two bees working together, and the singer is eager to join in that work, pollinating and tasting the sweetness that arises from their connection. The song is about the joy and pleasure that comes from merging with one's beloved, and the intense desire that can result from such a connection.
