The BEEKEEPER
Lyrics

 

General Joy

General Joy I know, I know you'll take me there
Where your boys were left behind
General Joy it seems you need a soldier girl
Now 'they' have Liberty gagged

By boat
By tram
By motorbus
Could it be the fates are protecting us from the hawks that have stolen the bird from the sky

And I know you will always love Sorrow
Is that why you gave her dress to Happiness?
Cause it matches her eyes when she cries

General Joy it seems you don't love your Bride
That doesn't mean you're a bad guy
Generally you're friends but she is not the love of your life

To dye
To perm
To change your hair or your wife
The possibilities are there and it's time for you to decide

And I know you will always love Sorrow
Is that why you gave her dress to Happiness?
Cause it matches her eyes when she cries

General Joy I know, I know you'll take me there
But you'll need strength from within
General Joy it seems you need a soldier girl and a willing coalition

By boat
By tram
By motorbus
Could it be the Hawks are protecting us from the Men who have now assumed their name

And I know you will always love Sorrow
Is that why you gave her dress to Happiness?
Cause it matches her eyes when she cries
Cause it matches her eyes when she cries
