Box full o' honey

At the sharp end of the view

The edge of me and you

And all good sense had tread no further

And as the ghost will shiver trees

How I'm trembling on my knees

But I'm still drawn on by the murmur



Are you laughing at me now

In my circumstance

When still I wear I your crown

My life's penitence

And for what

What's so funny

A box full o honey



What I thought a pretty tune

Was howling at the moon

To keep me company this evening

It's so lonely in the dirt

A scratching at the hurt

But I so generously did leave you



Are you laughing at me now

In my circumstance

When still I wear I your crown

Some cruel penitence 

for what

What's so funny

Box full o honey



Is she flirting with me now

Ohh

Is she dallying with me now

Ohh

ohhh

Are you flirting with me now

You'll always be my queen of tumble down

Miss melancholy



Are you laughing at me now

In my circumstance

When still I wear I your crown

And my life's a penitence 

And for what

What's so funny

Ain't it funny

A box full o honey
