No. The phrase is "beating around the bush".... it refers to making a noise around a bush to drive a bird out of it, when the simplest way to achieve the result would be to just go into the bush.
It is used when someone is delaying or not being as direct as they might be. You would tell them "Stop beating around the bush and just tell me the news," or "He's hiding something; he's just beating around the bush now."
