"Bon Vivants" lyrics

"Bon Vivants"

On the country roads for existing
Always take a book when you drift in
Don't dress for comfort and package a smile
So throw a loosely at strangers
Or there ain't no moral danger
In them wondering what you do all the while

So cover yourself in silver
And drape yourself in gold
Let's propose that a closet is big enough to deposit
Every necessary part of the day
Let's exist on the crumbs of a beauty not begun
I know you could feel the same way
So let's do it

We were throwing pretzels out inside a car window
Just to witness the tenacity of things
Have a song for the rims like seagulls have ocean winds
In spite of oncoming expletive things

So drape yourself in velvet
And slip your hip in some sheen
Let's propose that a closet is big enough to deposit
Every necessary part of the day
Let's exist on the crumbs of a beauty not begun
I know you could feel the same way

Ooh, don't forget it, don't forget it, don't forget it
Ooh, don't forget it, don't forget it, don't forget it
Ooh, go and get it, go and get it, go and get it

Let's propose that a closet is big enough to deposit
Every necessary part of the day
Let's exist on the crumbs of a beauty not begun
I know you could feel the same way

Pump it out, I try to sing about
