about

In the fertile lands of Campeche Mexico
A Mayan woman named Leydy Pech transformed into the Queen
of Beekeepers, defying the grim reaper
Hiding behind Monsanto’s plans
To zone and to clone a moaning monoculture
To poison the magic land

It was the beekeepers who de-FIED the grim reaper
Hiding behind Monsanto’s plans
To clone and to hone a devilish tone
In the heart of the honeycomb


Power to the pollinators!
Mother Father Earth Cre-A-tors
Leydy Pech oh please
Let us love the bees ---------

She gathered el pueblo, the lawyers and the farmers,
the wise Mayan elders and the beekeepers’ daughters
Her love for life and defending the land
Fueled the fight and powered the witness stands
With the forces of nature coursing through their hands

Pollinate the Revolution!
Fertile thoughts to grow sol-U-tions
The bee connection, honey’d hands
Sustain our cultures and the lands --------------------

KAZOO SOLO

So many brave souls quelled Monsanto’s monopoly, replacing
Mono with many, and poison with plenty
Now they’re feeding the forests, the fields are filled with local seed,
And those beloved bees fly all around as they please

It was the beekeepers who defied the grim reaper
Hiding behind Monsanto’s plans
To clone and to hone a devilish tone
In the heart of the honeycomb

Power to the pollinators!
Mother Father Earth Creators
Leydy Pech oh please
Let us love the bees ----- love the bees------- love the bees -----
