"Tripping Billies" lyrics
"Tripping Billies"
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
Eat, drink, and be merry
For tomorrow we'll die
Eat, drink, and be merry
For tomorrow we'll die
'Cause we're tripping billies
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
So why would you care
To get out of this place?
You and me and all our friends
Such a happy human race
'Cause we're tripping billies
We are all sitting
Legs crossed 'round a fire
My yellow flame, she dances
Tequila drinking
Oh, our minds will wonder
To wondrous places
So why would you care
To get out of this place?
You and me and all our friends
Such a happy human race
Eat, drink, and be merry
For tomorrow we'll die
Eat, drink, and be merry
For tomorrow we'll die
Take it up, Boyd
Yeah, yeah, yeah
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

Gin Blossoms - "Follow You Down" Did you see the sky? I think it means that we've been lost
Maybe one last time is all we need

Sheryl Crow - "Strong Enough" God, I feel like hell tonight
Tears of rage I cannot fight
I'd be the last to help you understand
Are you strong enough to be my man?
My man
Nothing's true and nothing's right
So let me be alone...
Ben Folds Five - "Brick" 6 A.M., day after Christmas
I throw some clothes on in the dark
The smell of cold
Car seat is freezing
The world is sleeping
I am numb
Up the stairs to her apartment
She is balled up on the couch...
Third Eye Blind - "Deep Inside Of You" When we met light was shed
Thoughts free flow, you said you've got something
Deep inside of you
A wind chime voice sound, sway of your hips round rings true
It goes deep inside of you
These secret...
