Tripping Billies

Lyrics

[Verse 1] We were above You were standing underneath us We were not yet lovers Dragons were smoked Bumblebees were stinging us I was soon to be crazy [Refrain] Eat, drink, and be merry For tomorrow we'll die Eat, drink, and be merry For tomorrow we'll die [Chorus] 'Cause we're tripping billies [Verse 2] We're wearing nothing Nothing but our shadows Shadows falling down on the beach sand Remembering once, out on the beaches We wore pineapple grass bracelets [Pre-Chorus] So why would you care To get out of this place? You and me and all our friends Such a happy human race, yeah [Chorus] Cause we're tripping billies [Verse 3] We are all sitting Legs crossed 'round a fire My yellow flame, she dances Tequila drinking Oh, our minds will wander To wondrous places [Pre-Chorus] So why would you care To get out of this place? You and me and all our friends Such a happy human race [Refrain] Eat, drink, and be merry For tomorrow we'll die Eat, drink, and be merry For tomorrow we'll die Take it up, Boyd [Instrumental Break] [Refrain] Eat, drink, and be merry For tomorrow we'll die Eat, drink, and be merry For tomorrow we'll die Eat, drink, and be merry For tomorrow we'll die Eat, drink, and be merry For tomorrow we'll die, yeah [Instrumental Outro]
