Sweet The Sting Lyrics - The Beekeeper - Tori Amos

With a strut into the room 

With his hat cocked sure defiantly 

He said, "I, I have heard that you can play the way I like it to be played" 

I said, "I can play anyway that you want, but first I want, I want to know" 

Baby, is it sweet, sweet, sweet the sting? 

Is it real this infusion? Can it heal where others before have failed? 

If so then somebody shake, shake, shake me sane 

'Cause I am inching ever closer to the tip of this scorpion's tail 

He said, "I laid my weapons down 

With my pistol fully loaded 

A hunted man to my root 

Will it end or begin in your cinnabar juice?"

Is it sweet, sweet, sweet your sting? 

Is it real your infusion? Can it heal where others before have failed? 

If so then somebody shake, shake, shake me sane 

'Cause I am inching ever closer to the tip of this scorpion's tail 

Love, let me breathe, breathe you in 

Melt the confusion 

Until there is, there is you 

Union 

Baby, is it sweet, sweet, sweet your sting? 

Is it real your infusion? Can it heal where others before have failed? 

If so then somebody shake, shake, shake me sane 

'Cause I am inching ever closer to the tip of this scorpion's tail 

Baby, is it sweet? 

Baby, is it sweet? 

Baby, is it sweet?
