Without even the slightest apology to
John Cougar Mellencamp, we present the complete
lyrics to what is sure to become the new anthem
of several beekeeping organizations:
"I.A.P.V. in the U.S.A."
=====================================
They come from the cities
and they come from the smaller towns.
Beat up trucks
hittin' smokers with hive tools - wack, boom, bam.
{Refrain}
I.A.P.V. in the U.S.A.
I.A.P.V. in the U.S.A.
I.A.P.V. in the U.S.A., yeah, yeah
Beekeepin' in the U.S.A.
Well, they said goodbye to their families,
said goodbye to their friends.
With their pipedreams in their heads
and very little money in their hands.
Some are black and some are white,
none too proud to sleep on your floor tonight.
With the blind faith in Almonds,
you know that they just might -
Bee-keepin' in the U.S.A.
{Refrain}
Pesticides from everywhere
and trade from the foreign towns -
Filled our hives full of pests,
and turned our world upside down.
There was Acarapis woodi, Varroa destructor,
Aethina tumida (they were rockin'!)
Neonicitinoids, Carbamates,
Organophosphates (they were rockin'!)
Synthetic pyrethroids,
let's dont forget Chloronicotines!
Beekeepin' in the U.S.A. - hey!
I.A.P.V. in the U.S.A.
(Repeat to fade, or until thrown out of the bar)
