[length: 06:35]
[00:21.48]We were above
[00:23.16]You were standing underneath us
[00:25.02]We were not yet lovers
[00:29.77]Dragons were smoked
[00:30.82]Bumblebees were stinging us
[00:33.46]I was soon to be crazy
[00:37.20]Eat, drink, and be merry
[00:40.87]For tomorrow we’ll die
[00:44.73]Eat, drink, and be merry
[00:49.16]For tomorrow we’ll die
[00:53.06]’Cause we’re tripping billies
[01:10.21]We’re wearing nothing
[01:12.00]Nothing but our shadows, shadows falling down on the beach sand
[01:18.33]Remembering once, out on the beaches
[01:21.62]We wore pineapple grass bracelets
[01:25.57]So why would you care
[01:29.62]To get out of this place?
[01:33.73]You and me and all our friends
[01:37.64]Such a happy human race, ueah
[01:42.60]
[01:58.23]We’re tripping billies
[02:00.18]
[02:15.79]We are all sitting, legs crossed ’round a fire
[02:19.59]My yellow flame, she dances
[02:23.59]Tequila drinking, oh, our minds will wonder
[02:27.66]To wondrous places
[02:30.76]So why would you care
[02:34.83]To get out of this place?
[02:39.24]You and me and all our friends
[02:43.14]Such a happy human race
[02:47.42]Eat, drink, and be merry
[02:51.47]For tomorrow we’ll die
[02:55.58]Eat, drink, and be merry
[02:59.40]For tomorrow we’ll die
[03:02.74]Take it up, boy
[03:04.84]
[04:41.60]Eat, drink, and be merry
[04:45.77]For tomorrow we’ll die
[04:49.86]Eat, drink, and be merry
[04:53.97]For tomorrow we’ll die
[04:57.77]Eat, drink, and be merry
[05:01.93]For tomorrow we’ll die
[05:06.30]Eat, drink, and be merry
