Be Like The Bee (Live at the Salt Lick)

mud & marrow Live at @TheSaltLickDenver
Be Like the Bee, music & lyrics by Laura Masko Gibson

Lyrics:
If life is a to-do list [CHECK]
Only items that are checkable get done [CHECK CHECK]
Unfasten your gaze from the flashing screen
Breathe in the brazen horizon

If we truly wish to manifest our destinies
Don’t fill the void with another toy
We cannot sell our attention
For clicks and commodified loneliness

Drop in, Drop Down – away from the busy-ness
Gotta say no, or the yes is meaningless
When consumption consumes me
I gotta be like the bee and make honey

Be like the bee and create
Be like the bee and create
Honey, honey, honey, honey


Lift up your voice so they can hear you!

Capitalism is a disease we gotta [check]
They’ll mark the lists on our gravestone with a [check]
Let the present slam your chest like a [check]!
Lift up your voice so they can hear you [check]!

Don’t pick up the phone and check out! Walk out!
