Tripping Billies

Dave Matthews Band Lyrics "Tripping Billies" From The Album: "Crash" (1996) We were above You 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 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 die Writer(s): David John Matthews
