L'essaim se gonfle et s'abandonne
À la caresse du printemps
Près de la ruche tourbillonnent
Prêtes à prendre leur élan
Vss-vss-vss
Vss-vss-vss
Les abeilles
Les abeilles

Elles vont par cent et par mille
Sur les fleurs qui s'ouvrent à peine
Et leur butinent le pistil
Pour en extraire le pollen
Vss-vss-vss
Vss-vss-vss
Les abeilles
Les abeilles

Ces jolies petites bestioles
Fabriquent d'abord de la cire
Elles en font des alvéoles
Doux petits nids pour bien dormir
Vss-vss-vss
Vss-vss-vss
Les abeilles
Les abeilles

Elles travaillent par idéal
Car elles n'ont dans leur labeur
Ni la sécurité sociale
Ni la semaine des quarante heures
Vss-vss-vss
Vss-vss-vss
Les abeilles
Courageuses abeilles

Mais gare à celui qui s'égare
Au milieu d'elles par hasard
Il aura beau s'enfuir dar-dar
Il sera piqué par le dard
Vss-vss-vss
Vss-vss-vss
Les abeilles
Les abeilles

Elles se fatiguent et nous les hommes
Devant ce don qui vient du ciel
En égoïstes que nous sommes
Nous nous nourrissons du bon miel
Vss-vss-vss
Vss-vss-vss
De l'abeille
Généreuse abeille

Quand vient le grand jour de la ponte
La reine doit faire de son corps don
Et dans l'azur elle monte monte
Poursuivie par tous les bourdons
Vss-vss-vss
Vss-vss-vss
Ça va être sa fête
Ça va être sa fête

C'est celui qui la rejoindra
Qui sera le bourdon papa
Mais tout d'suite après il mourra
Pour avoir donné tout c'qu'il a
Vss-vss-vss
Vss-vss-vss
Vach'd'abeille
Vach'd'abeille

Si tous les hommes ici-bas
Devaient mourir à c'moment-là
J'en connais plus d'un, croyez-moi
Qui y regard'rait à deux fois
Vss-vss-vss
Vss-vss-vss
À d'autres

Mais comm' c'est pas demain la veille
Que les femmes deviendront abeilles
Moi je dors sur les deux oreilles
Et je dis miel aux p'tites abeilles
Vss-vss-vss
Vss-vss-vss
À la ruche les abeilles

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
