Trouble Looks Like Honey
Trouble's Sweet Deception: Unraveling Pluto Gang's Honeyed Chaos
Lyrics
I don't know what you think you're doing
I am uncertain about your intentions or actions
I don't know what you want from me
I am unclear about what you expect or desire from me
Running around like you mean business
You are behaving with seriousness and purpose
Running around all care free
You are moving around without worries or responsibilities
You are trouble that looks like honey. I ain't your bee
You appear attractive but are trouble; I won't be entangled with you
Protect yourself from the rain but you won't shelter me
Take precautions for yourself, but I won't provide you shelter
You just ain't for me, ain't for me
You are not suitable for me
Can't you see? Can't you see?
Expressing frustration, questioning understanding
I won't give you what you're asking for
I won't give in to your demands
I promise you're the one who's mean
You, not me, are the one being unkind or unpleasant
Treat us like we’re all here to serve you
You treat others as if they exist to serve you
But you ain't nobody's cup of tea
You are not liked or appreciated by anyone
You are trouble that looks like honey. I ain't your bee
You seem attractive but are trouble; I won't be entangled with you (repeated)
Protect yourself from the rain but you won't shelter me
Take precautions for yourself, but I won't provide you shelter (repeated)
You just ain't for me, ain't for me
You are not suitable for me (repeated)
Can't you see? Can't you see?
Expressing frustration, questioning understanding (repeated)
I'd steal the keys to car and take your jeep
I'd take drastic actions to separate from you
Give it to someone else, now ain’t that a treat?
Give the source of trouble (car/jeep) to someone else, as a gesture
All of yourself, baby you can keep
You can keep all of yourself, I am not interested
So now try and write a song about me
Suggesting the difficulty of writing a positive song about the person
You are trouble that looks like honey. I ain't your bee
You appear attractive but are trouble; I won't be entangled with you (repeated)
Protect yourself from the rain but you won't shelter me
Take precautions for yourself, but I won't provide you shelter (repeated)
You just ain't for me, ain't for me
You are not suitable for me (repeated)
Can't you see? Can't you see?
Expressing frustration, questioning understanding (repeated)
