[Verse 1]
Once upon a time
I coulda had it all
A princess with a price on her head
Or the prince who'd climb her wall
When pride has it in for someone
None of us could check the fall

[Pre-Chorus]
Now I'm as humble as a bumblebee
Looking out the way things have to be
That's another mumble
Buzzing round and round in rings
So afraid that I won't be king

[Chorus]
This is the sting, I still want everything
Here is the twist, well, you're on my list and
Here's what I mean, you're still the queen
And I want you

[Verse 2]
Now I wonder
If I will ever be
The lighthousе in a sea of shadows
That you were whеn you shined for me
When I was going under
You knew when and where to be
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I'm as good as Ebenezer after his conversion
I'd give all my goods away with no coercion
I'd give almost anything
Just to hear the hum of your wing

[Chorus]
This is the sting, I still want everything
Here is the twist, well, you're on my list and
Here's what I mean, you're still the queen
And I want you, well, I want you

[Pre-Chorus]
I was as 'umble as Uriah just before his tumble
But I fumbled for the best of me amongst the jumble
Heaven knows where we went wrong
Was it Don Quixote or Donkey Kong?

[Chorus]
This is the sting, I still want everything
Here is the twist, well, you're on my list
Here's what I mean, you're still the queen
And I want you, I want you

[Outro]
I want you
I want you, yeah
I want you
"Humble Bee"
