Yellowjacket

Yellowjacket buzzing ‘round my lemonade
About 1000 times I’ve shooed you away
You come back faithfully every time I do
I’ve got an extra quarter so I’ll buy a cup for you

This old world it seems stretched out so wide
That a guy like me could get lost inside
In this mystery, you’re a little clue
That I am not alone


Wooden yo-yo turning in my hand
I push you down, you come spinning up again
Since you’ve got no place to go it would seem
I’ll keep you in a shoebox of my favorite things

This old world it seems stretched out so wide
That a guy like me could get lost inside
In this mystery, you’re a little clue
That I am not alone


Distant yodel calling in the wind
I tossed you to the valley, you come bouncing back again
Carry my voice back to me on the mountainside
Remind me of the song I sang once upon a time

This old world it seems stretched out so wide
That a guy like me could get lost inside
In this mystery, you’re a little clue
That I am not alone


Little young one busy in your room
Building toy cities while I watch over you
Someday you’ll grow and I will let you go in time
I hope that you come buzzing back around once in a while

This old world it seems stretched out so wide
That a guy like me could get lost inside
In this mystery, you’re a little clue
That I am not alone


Yellowjacket buzzing ‘round my lemonade
About 1000 times I’ve shooed you away
You come back faithfully every time I do
I’ve got an extra quarter so I’ll buy a cup for you
