Don't Let The Same Bee Sting You Twice - The Veils

I left a message to myself

That girl ain’t no good for your health

Unhooked my brother’s telephone

Pretended nobody was home

Your love weren’t nothing but trouble — I guess I’m only now paying the price

Don’t let the same bee sting you twice

Don’t let the same bee sting you twice

Climbing up your mama’s stairs

Oblivious to your affairs

But really how could I have known?

Your lies were seeds carefully sewn

But now I know I should always have listened to dear daddy’s advice

Don’t let the same bee sting you twice

Don’t let the same bee sting you twice

Well now ain’t you meant to die after one sting, honey?

But you just keep on coming back for more

And I’ve been losing my mind over this and ain’t it funny

I’ve still got no idea what it is you’re looking for?

Oh, and here she comes again —

And now you’re standing at my door

Just too damn pretty to ignore

And i think that maybe I’ve gone mad

And your love really weren’t so bad

And then you claim it was a case of neurotic perception and I say «Maybe,

well that sounds about right»

And then I let the same bee sting me twice

Yeah I let the same bee sting me twice
