[Intro – 1–2 lines]
Yeah…
Same road, same eyes every time
[Verse 1]
They pass by slow, then they spin back ‘round
Tires kissin’ that same old ground
In and out but they never stay
Still comin’ back like twice a day
Same headlights, same routine
Rollin’ past like a movie scene
If it was someone else, they’d talk all night
But they stay real quiet when it’s my life
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah I see it, I ain’t blind
Y’all ain’t slick, just wastin’ time
Watchin’ me like I’m on TV
But I’m just out here bein’ me
[Chorus]
Keep starin’ like I’m queen bee
Buzzin’ ‘round but you can’t reach me
Drive by slow just to see me shine
Circle back like it’s overtime
Keep starin’, yeah I run this scene
Front porch glow with a backroad gleam
You don’t gotta like me—just don’t pretend
You ain’t lookin’ every time you spin
[Verse 2]
They pass by many times a day
Goin’ in and out but don’t ever stay
If it were someone else, they’d say it loud
“They dealin’ somethin’”—judge the crowd
But not me, nah, not today
Guess the truth bends in a different way
I just sit back, let ‘em assume
While they keep circlin’ like the moon
[Pre-Chorus – Short]
Yeah I clock it every time
That slow roll says what you hide
[Chorus – Repeat]
Keep starin’ like I’m queen bee
Buzzin’ ‘round but you can’t reach me
Drive by slow just to see me shine
Circle back like it’s overtime
Keep starin’, yeah I run this scene
Front porch glow with a backroad gleam
You don’t gotta like me—just don’t pretend
You ain’t lookin’ every time you spin
[Bridge – Spoken (quick, 1–2 bars)]
Gas ain’t cheap…
But here you are again.
[Final Chorus – Big Hook Outro]
Keep starin’ like I’m queen bee
Yeah you circle back repeatedly
If attention had a highway sign
It’d point straight here every time
Keep starin’, take it all in
You don’t pass by—you checkin’ in
I don’t gotta prove a thing
I know I’m awesome…
That’s why you keep starin’
Why not come clean up the dead tree damage from your encroaching fence? Since i am queen bee Buzzin around while your stare at me... Loving the attention..
Queen Bee Out! Until next time!
Love it!
Nice vibe
So moving
