Worker Bees

March on, worker bees!

Know your enemy!

We take our orders given by the queen

We're not the killers, we're the worker bees

If you resist us you will feel our sting

Surrender now before the swarm sets in

Protect the hive from enemies!

Protect the hive from enemies!

Follow the herd mentality!

Can we fight to save our souls?

March on, worker bees!

Know your enemy!

A pollination coming from the west,

And in a flash we will invade your nest

Supply of honey flowing bottomless

Play by our rules or you'll be powerless

Protect the hive from enemies!

Protect the hive from enemies!

Follow the herd mentality!

Can we fight to save our souls?

And we'll march... along, with our blindfolds on

And we'll ride... the rails, with our pistols drawn

Can the Lord... above, forgive what we've done?

Can we fight to save our souls?

And we'll march... along, with our blindfolds on

And we'll ride... the rails, with our pistols drawn

Can the Lord... above, forgive what we've done?

Can we fight to save our souls?

Can we fight to save our souls?

Will we die to save our home?

About this Song

Worker Bees by Billy Talent is a gripping punk rock song that critiques societal conformity and the sacrifices individuals make to fit into the 'hive' of modern society. This song embodies themes of rebellion, individuality, and existential angst. The band uses the metaphor of worker bees to highlight how people often suppress their dreams and desires to meet societal expectations. Poignant moments in the song include lines that depict personal struggle and the loss of identity in the face of overwhelming societal pressure. The frenetic energy of the music underscores the urgent message of breaking free from the mold.
