Pearl Jam - Bee Girl Lyrics






Bee girl, you're gonna die.
You don't wanna be famous, you wanna be shy.
Do your dances alone in your room.
Becoming a star will become your doom.
Bee Girl, be a girl. [x2]

You know time is long, and life is short.
Begin to live while you still can.
Believe in nothing, believe me,
Those who can be trusted can change their mind.
When the anxious is the present, unwrap your gifts, take your time.
Everything you imagine needn't be stuck in your mind.
Bee Girl, be a girl... [x2]

    Who is Shannon guys?

    s.... v....

    they are referring to Shannon Hoon, singer for Blind Melon who wrote No Rain, which depicted a Bee Girl. Shannon died of an overdose way before his time. and this is a tribute to him

  2. B.... W....

    Bee girl, you're going to die
    You don't want to be famous, you want to be shy
    Do your dances alone in your room
    Becoming a star will become your doom
    Bee Girl, be a girl. [x2]
    You know time is long, and life is short
    Begin to live while you still can
    Believe in nothing, believe me
    Those who can be trusted can change their mind
    When the anxious is the present, unwrap your gifts, take your time
    Everything you imagine needn't be stuck in your mind
    Bee Girl, be a girl... [x2]

    I just found out this song was about the bee girl from the blind melon video, and apparently she was such a snotty little bitch that Eddie Vedder wrote a song about her being a prima donna. I kinda think this tune sucks a little.

  4. R.... J....

    I love how you can hear Eddie flipping the paper with the Lyrics

  5. G.... G....

    it kinda sounds like something kermit the frog would sing

  6. S.... ....

    This song was to Shannon Hoon, for those who think it's about the girl in the No Rain video. http://www.feelnumb.com/2009/11/11/shannon-hoon-loved-pearl-jam-and-eddie-vedder-did-not-like-the-bee-girl/

  7. L.... B....

    "This song was dedicated to that Beegirl In That one video for that one Band..
    I always think what ever happend to her"

    This is to you BeeGirl!
    Wherever You Are!

    L.... B....

    She seems to be doing alright. Her name is Heather Deloach. She "represents a world-renowned fertility doctor in Orange County, California". She got married in 2017 at age 34 and her husband is a financial advisor. "Bee Girl" featured heavily In her wedding.

    L.... B....

    The one band is blind melon

  8. D.... ....

    believe in nothing, believe in me Shannon <3

  9. J.... ....

    No offense to Shannon Hoon but this isn't about him, it's about the girl in the "No Rain" video who got carried away with her brief fame

  10. y.... ....

    HEROIN RULEZ PEEPS TRUST ME. JUST FUCKIN DO IT

    y.... ....

    @yeahSOwhat You can believe that if you choose. I implore you to get help if you are addicted to Heroin. I know all too well that it kills.

    y.... ....

    Melissa Ridner well, if you ain't careful anything can kill you, for me so far in 20 years apart from financial damage I'm not complaining. I have many friends who drink alcohol and let me tell you it's a much much worse predicament. Just be careful and enjoy it, soon we'll be all gone so what are you saving yourself for ? Anyway I understand how death of a friend can change your point of view but as I said, we'll all go at some point....

    y.... ....

    Who wants to speed that process along by doing a very destructive drug? I understand that it seems like you are not ready to quit and that is your business but I will never see anyone promoting the use of Heroin as a good thing.

    y.... ....

    Melissa Ridner my 20 years of use speax 4 itself. unless you have similar experience you've been brainwashed.

    y.... ....

    I have not been brainwashed I have actually seen people die from Heroin addiction. I am a certified substance abuse counselor so I do have extensive expertise in this area, Like I said,it is completely your business if you do not want to admit that you have a problem but trying to make others think that Heroin is not a dangerous drug is socially irresponsible of you.

  11. d.... ....

    Beautiful Bee Girl, always in my heart. :'(

  13. S.... P....

  23. S.... B....

    This song is so beautiful live.

  24. J.... ....

    Brighter days, Nico Blue.

  25. S.... R....

    In memory of Shannon....still missed

  26. J.... C....

    R.I.P. , Lane you are missed and one if the greatest.

    J.... C....

    This song is for Shannon Hoon

    J.... C....

    lol layne is still missed too haha

    J.... C....

    There’s a tribute to Layne about 4 minutes after this track is over on the lost dogs album. I believe that’s what Jamie was referring to. You can find it on the lost dogs album if you own it, starts at about 6 minutes on the bee girl track
    If you wanna find it on YouTube the secret track is titled 4/20/02 (the day Ed found out the news)
    I heard the track was recorded when Eddie was in the studio alone, and it was added on as a secret track

  27. M.... K....

    We miss you Shannon

  28. N.... ....

    Pretty
    But I don't believe the "believe in nothing" part.

  29. t.... b....

    i love eddie and pearl jam but  have to say i n ti song i cant stand the way he sounds

  30. T.... P....

    FUCK YOU!

  31. P.... B....

    Beeeee girl.....be a girl....perfect

  32. m.... r....

    Happy birth month shannon! Forever missed

  33. j.... c....

    I think I wept the first time I heard this song. I guess the lyrics and overall tone cut pretty deep. Either that, or I was really lonely and depressed at the time of discovering it.

  34. I.... C....

    Rip Shannon Hoon <3

  35. M.... ....

    RIP Shannon Hoon forever missed

  36. a.... ....

    the song was written before shannon died. potentially prophetic though for sure

    a.... ....

    anodesrule yea ok

  37. j.... ....

    @scottfury12 shut the fuck up if u have nothing good to say. This is a tribute to a great artist. So go away.

  38. j.... ....

    RIP Shannon

  39. T.... P....

    RIP Shannon

  40. T.... F....

    RIP Shannon

  41. n.... ....

    RIP Shannon

  42. Y.... S....

    Aww, evacookie. Like you do alone in your room. You remind me of my ex-gf. Cute. :)

  43. e.... ....

    this song's sad for me. makes me think of how it's hard for me to sing or dance in front of others the way i do alone, or simply shouting "i wanna have that part!". but who really cares about being famous after their teen years? and we're all gonna die, anyway...

  44. N.... W....

    Absolutely! :)

  45. b.... ....

    For me, almost everything they do is good and magical, at their own way.

  46. N.... W....

    So true! There are so many PJ songs better than "Even Flow" an "Alive" (even though these are both fabulous), but people just focus on the huge successes...

  47. a.... ....

    my crush is like the bee girl... that's why I love this song so much...

  48. M.... ....

    If the anxious is the present. Unwrap your gift, take your time... Love it :)

  49. C.... K....

    Forever one of my favorites.

  50. N.... K....

    One more underrated song of the many...

    N.... K....

    Nikola Kosmajac yea...ok
