Interlude - spoken:
Oh man this is really living
So just try and relax, yeah cool it
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

      A7                  A7
When you find out you can live without it
    Dm                      G7
And go along not thinkin' about it
      C          A7
I'll tell you something true
            Dm           G7                C
The bare necessities of life will come to you
