Barbra Streisand

Songwriter: Rupert Holmes

Producer: Barbra Streisand Phil Ramone

The Black Black Widow is sittin' in the middle
Of the web it's the fly she seeks
You may be her lover but you never will recover
Cuz she ain't had a bite for weeks
You think you're the same cuz you got the same name
But the widow has a mobil home
Remember what I told you
She's got eight arms to hold ya
And she 's never gonna let you roam

She'll tuck you into bed
Truck on your head
Then she'll wrap you as a midnight snack
So if you see a spider
Don't you saddle up beside her
Why you think the widow's wearing black?
Jack (ou!)

The Queen bee baby
Pray that you be left on your own
Uh huh
NOTHIN' SHE'LL GIVE YOU
Nothin' she'll give you
Gonna out live you
Ohohohoh
But thequeen bee's never gonna be alone
Uh huh....

Long before Atlantis there has been a praying mantis
And you know why he's on his knees
He may HAVE RELGION
But he's just a sittin pigeon
If a woman even starts to tease
He won't even QUIBBLE if she has a little nibble
On his neck what a way to go
Now youve gone and TORN it you 've been messin with a hornet
She's a blue blooded wasp you know
And just as you do it she'll inject you with a fluid
That you ain't even got but none
YOU'RE MEAT ON THE PLATE
Not even first rate she's gonna feed you to her seventh son

JUST LIKE A Queen bee baby
Pray that you MAY be left on your own own own own own own own
NOTHIN' SHE'LL GIVE YOU
GONNA OUTLIVE YOU
HU HU HU...but the queen bee's never gonna be alone
Uh huh....uh huh....

So in conclusion it's an optical illusion
If you think that we're the weaker race
Men got the muscle but theladies got the hustle
And the truth is staring in your face

The mother bear stalks and the queen of the hawks is the one who brings home the bread. The lion that is reagle and the bald
Headed eagle need a woman just to keep them fed. But come the evening we're like Adam and his Eve inside the garden hear the serpents sound

It's so frustrating when your really into mating
And there ain't a lovin man around
WhoEVER wrote the story
THROW OUT THE GLORY
BRING IN THE MEN
It's so frustrating when your really into mating
And there isn't a loving man around
It's so frustrating when your really into mating
And there isn't a loving man around

GIVE ME THEM AND I'LL SWING...
Write me a sequel give me an equal
AH AH AH...
Oh and I'll give that man
I said I'm gonna give that loving man
I said I'm gonna give that loving man
I said I'm gonna give that loving sting...

Zaap!!!

Barbra Streisand is an Oscar-winning, Tony-winning, Emmy-winning, Golden Globe-winning Broadway legend, film star, movie director and one of the biggest-selling recording artists of all time - a staggering amount of accomplishments for someone whose mother insisted she not to go into show business.

By the time she was sixteen, she’d graduated high school and was living on her own in Manhattan. After winning a talent contest at a gay bar on West 9th Street, Streisand’s ‘spellbinding’ voice quickly became popular at New York clubs and in Broadway shows. After appearances on a number of popular television shows including The Tonight Show, Streisand signed with Columbia Records and released several top 10 albums in the 1960s, scoring two US top 40 hits with “People” and “Second Hand Rose”.

Her success as a recording artist continued through the 1970s with several more gold/platinum-certified albums and four US “You Don’t Bring Me Flowers”, “No More Tears”, the Oscar-winning “The Way We Were”, and the Academy Award-winning “Evergreen (Love Theme from A Star Is Born)”. The 1980s would begin with Streisand’s biggest-selling release of her career Guilty, a collaborative effort with BeeGees member Barry Gibb. It topped the albums chart in several countries and as did its lead single “Woman In Love”.
