What a lovely afternoon On a cloudbusting kind of day We took our own 'Mystery Tour' And got completely lost somewhere up in the hills And we came up on a bee-keeper And he said "Did you know they can change it all?" You want alchemy They turn the roses into gold They turn the lilac into honey They're making love for the peaches And we're thinking "Who is this guy?" "Is he some kind of nut or what?" He said, "I don't meet many people.." "I'm very busy with the hives." ZzzzZzzzz.. Sun's gone down.. "When's my cloud of bees coming home?"
They got alchemy They turn the roses into gold They turn the lilac into honey They're making love for the peaches And they'll do it Do it for you They'll do it Do it for you "And if you see them, send 'em right on home to me" (what they gonna do...?) They go Turn the roses into gold And they'll do it for you Do it for you (what they gonna do...?) I'll tell you... Making love for the peaches. (what they gonna do...?) [?] honey (they do it for you) They do it for you And why not...? They bring me so much pleasure
