Strum
D-DU-UDU
 You can't  put a butterfly in a jar
If  the effort's too high no matter who you are
 You can't  catch the moon, or the sun or the stars
It  doesn't matter who you are
 Iced honey
 Iced honey
 Now me I've tried a million tricks
 To make  life cold and make it stick
 Not running  heat that flames then out
 But the proud  piece of ice that always floats
 (Repeat Chorus)
 If I can't  trap a butterfly or a bee
 If I can't  keep my heart where I want it to be
 If no matter  how much soul and heart I put to the wood
 If a flaming  heart is not that good
 (Repeat Chorus)
 If you can't  put a butterfly in a jar
 If violence  mars your final hour
 If you make  others feel like jam
Poured  on a piece of charbroiled lamb
 If it's all  mixed up and you cannot shout
 And your oxygen  starts to run out
 If your final  gasp has the recipe wrong
 And instead  of hello you say so long
 If your energy  starts to leak out
 And people  wonder what you're all about
 A heartbreaker  with an unattached heart
 The story  of love gives them all a start
 And me,  I've always been this way
 Not by choice,  just this way
 I can't  put my honey pot in a jar
 Or a heart  or a fist of some young boy
 If you can't  put a butterfly in a jar
 No wonder no  need to wonder where you are
 It might  seem like Hell, the river Styx
Your  affection never sticks
No  matter what you say, no matter what you do
 A butterfly  heart flies right past you
 There's nothing  to say, nothing to do
See  if the ice will melt for you
See  if the ice will melt for you
See  if the ice will melt for you
See  if the ice will melt for you
See  if the ice will melt for you
 Iced honey
 Iced Honey
 Iced  honey
 Iced Honey
 (Repeat Bridge)
 Iced honey  (See if the ice will melt for you)
 Iced Honey  (See if the ice will melt for you)
 Iced honey  (See if the ice will melt for you)
 See if the, see if the ice  will melt for you
  (See if the ice will melt for you)
 Iced honey  (See if the ice will melt for you)
 Iced Honey  (See if the ice will melt for you)
 Iced honey
 -I hope you enjoy; my little droogies.
