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 bring 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 paw paw
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 paw paw
Have I given you a clue

The bare necessities of life will come to you
They'll come to you

Oh man this is really little
So just try
Cool it, fall apart in my backyard
Cause let me tell you something little breeches
If you act like that bee acts
Uh uh, you're working too hard
And don't spend your time looking around
For something you want that can't be found

When you find out you can live without it
And go along not thinking about it
I'll tell you something true
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 (yeah man)
I mean the bare necessities
That's why a bear can rest at ease
With just the bare necessities of life
With just the bare necessities of life
Yeah man
