Queen Bee Lyrics


The black, black widow is sittin' in the middle of the web
It's the fly she seeks
You may be her lover but you never will recover, 'cause
She ain't had a bite for weeksYou think your the same, 'cause you got the same name
But the widow has a mobile home
Remember what I told you, she got eight arms to hold you
And she's never gonna let you roamShe'll tuck into bed and truck on your head, then she'll
Wrap you as a midnight snack
So if you see a spider, don't you sidle up beside her
Why'd you think the widow's wearin' black?Queen bee, baby
Pray that you may be left on your own, uh huh
Nothin' she'll give you, gonna outlive you, uh, uh, uh
But the queen bee's never gonna be alone. Uh huhLong before Atlantis there has been a praying mantis and
You knows why he's on his knees
He may have religion but he's just a sittin' pigeon if a
Woman even starts to teaseHe won't even quibble if she has a little nibble on his neck
What a way to go
And now you done and torn it! You been messin' with a

Hornet, she's a blue-blooded wasp, you knowAnd just as you do it, she'll inject you with a fluid that you
Ain't even got but none
You're the meat on the plate, not even first rate, she's
Gonna feed you to her seventh sonJust like the Queen Bee, baby
Pray that you may be left on your own
Nothin' she'll give you, gonna outlive you, uh, uh, uh
But the queen bee's never gonna be alone. Uh huh. Uh huhSo, in conclusion, it's an optical illusion, if you think that
We're the weaker race
Men got the muscle, but the ladies got the hustle, and the
Truth is staring in your faceThe mother bear stalks, and the queen of the hawks, is the
One who brings home the bread
The lion that is regal, and the bald headed eagle, need a
Woman just to keep them fedBut come the evenin', we're like Adam and his Eve, inside
The garden. Hear the serpent's sound?
It's so frustratin', when you're really into matin', and there
Ain't a lovin' man aroundWhoever wrote this story
(It's so frustratin', when you're really
Into matin', and there ain't a lovin' man around)
Throw out the glory
(It's so frustratin', when you're really
Into matin', and there ain't a lovin' man around)
Bring in the men (give me them and I'll swing)
Write me a sequel
Give me an equal, oh, oh, oh
And I'll give that man
I said I'm give that lovin' man
I said I'm gonna give that lovin' man
I'm gonna give him that lovin' sting! Zap

Barbra Streisand (born Barbara Joan Streisand; April 24, 1942 Brooklyn, New York), is an Academy Award-winning American singer, theater and film actress, composer, film producer, and director. She has won Oscars for Best Actress and Best Original Song as well as multiple Emmy Awards, Grammy Awards, Golden Globe Awards and an honorary Tony Award. She received the prestigious Kennedy Center Honor on December 7, 2008. She is the most successful female recording artist according to the Recording Industry Assoc. of America (RIAA).

Barbra Streisand has recorded more than 60 albums, almost all with Columbia Records. Her early works in the 1960s (her debut The Barbra Streisand Album which won two Grammy Awards in 1963, followed by The Second Barbra Streisand Album, The Third Album, My Name Is Barbra, etc.) are considered classic renditions of theater and nightclub standards, including her version of Happy Days Are Here Again. Beginning with My Name Is Barbra, her albums were often medley-filled keepsakes of her television specials.

Starting in 1969, Streisand tackled contemporary songwriters; like many talented singers of the day, she found herself a fish out of water in attempts to tackle rock, but her vocal talents prevailed and she gained newfound success with the pop and ballad-oriented Richard Perry-produced album Stoney End in 1971. The title track, written by Laura Nyro, was a big hit for Streisand.

Streisand's 1980 album, Guilty featured the songwriting, production and vocal talents of Barry Gibb and was the best-selling album of her recording career. During the 1970s, she was also highly prominent in the pop charts, with number-one records like The Way We Were, Evergreen, No More Tears (Enough Is Enough) (her duet with Donna Summer), and Woman In Love; some of these came from soundtracks of her films. She recently took part in supporting Haiti in singing "We are the World 25th anniversary.

When the 1970s ended, Streisand was named the most successful female singer in the U.S. - only Elvis Presley and The Beatles having sold more albums. [1]

[1] In 1982, New York Times music critic Stephen Holden wrote that Streisand was "the most influential mainstream American pop singer since Frank Sinatra."
