Queen Bee
Rochelle Diamante Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Well get in line
Cause baby I'm a hot commodity
And I don't wanna waste your time
Got you sweating like a heat wave
And I'm cool as ice
You ain't never seen a girl like me
In all your life
Cus I'm a fly chick
I buy my own kicks
And like a light switch
You can turn me on
But you gotta be sweet if you want my honey
Gotta beware if you want my heart
Only a king deserves my lovin
Uh oh oh, You know
Better believe that I'm independent
Better behave when you say my name
Cus I'm a queen when the camera's flashin
Uh oh oh, you know oh
I'm a queen bee
uh oh oh oh
Queen bee
uh oh oh oh
Queen bee
uh oh oh oh
You can call me honey but I just might sting
I like the way you move boy
I I could make you mine
But I'm a number one priority
And I don't wanna waste my time
Are you ready for the chase now
I know you can fly
Cus all the other bees would work for me
Can you get that high
Cus I'm a fly chick
I buy my own kicks
And like a light switch
You can turn me on
Cus you gotta be sweet if you want my honey
Gotta beware if you want my heart
Only a king deserves my lovin
Uh oh oh, you know
Better believe that I'm independent
Better behave when you say my name
Cus I'm a queen when the camera's flashin
Uh oh oh, you know oh
I'm a queen bee
uh oh oh oh
Queen bee
Uh oh oh oh
Queen bee
Uh oh oh oh
You can call my honey but I just might sting
Could you be the man that I see in my dreams
You and me could be like royalty
Nothing ïn the world
Could ever stop us now
oh yeah

@Dodger24
Definitely no better choice to sing in place of Kesha on a bee related song in Helluva Boss than Rochelle Diamante, great job!
@katwithagat
RIGHT?? Still sad we had to replace the Queen herself, but Rochelle nailed it! I almost didn't recognize it wasn't Kesha singing haha
@Amie4f70n
@@katwithagat Same! I didn't notice it was Diamante until I watched Cartoon Universe's video that came out about the episode the same day
@Cinder-M-Denki
She did do a good job! Was surprised when I didn't hear anything about cotton candy in this song but it's still really good!
@RoRoOfficial7
Wow, thank you!
@mustangman4593
I thought she sounded like Kesha, then saw a comment saying that Kesha voiced her, was like "Whoa that's amazing!" and then saw that she did do the singing part in the credits.
Diamante did an EXCELLENT job. I could have been fooled. Bamboozled even.
@kevin
Rochelle you're a beast!
@X1aoChen

@imthebossmermaid3648
No, she’s a bee. Didn’t you hear her?
