BOWLING FOR SOUP lyrics : "the bare necessities"

Look for the bare necessities

The simple bare necessities


Forget about your worries and your strife


I mean the bare necessities

Old Mother Nature's recipes


That brings the bare necessities of life




Wherever I wander, wherever I roam


I couldn't be fonder of my big home


The bees are buzzin' in the tree

To make some honey just for me


When you look under the rocks and plants


And take a glance at the fancy ants

Then maybe try a few





The bare necessities of life will come to you

They'll come to you!





Look for the bare necessities

The simple bare necessities


Forget about your worries and your strife


I mean the bare necessities

That's why a bear can rest at ease


With just the bare necessities of life




Now when you pick a pawpaw


Or a prickly pear


And you prick a raw paw

Next time beware


Don't pick the prickly pear by the paw


When you pick a pear

Try to use the claw


But you don't need to use the claw


When you pick a pear of the big pawpaw





Have I given you a clue ?





The bare necessities of life will come to you

They'll come to you!




Aww mam, this is really cool

So just try and relax, yeah


Fall apart in my backyard

'Cause let me tell you something little britches

If you act like that bee acts, uh uh


You're working too hard




And don't spend your time lookin' around

For something you want that can't be found

When you find out you can live without it


And go along not thinkin' about it

I'll tell you something true



The bare necessities of life will come to you




Look for the bare necessities

The simple bare necessities


Forget about your worries and your strife

I mean the bare necessities

That's why a bear can rest at ease

With just the bare necessities of life




The bare necessities of life will come to you
