Lyrics Tripping Billies - Dave Matthews Band

Oh, we were above
You were standing underneath us
We were not yet lovers
Dragons were smokes
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

And 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 around a fire
My yellow flame, she dances
Oh, tequila drinking
Oh, our minds will wander
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

Sing 'em out, folks

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
