Bare Necessities

Search for just the bare necessities
What you will need, just that
And forget about worries
If you seek the very essential
To live without struggling
And nature will provide it to you

You can walk from here to there
And at all times and in all places
A fruit, a flower to take from
Nature will never fail you
(nono no no no no no)

Search for just the bare necessities
What you will need, just that
And never abuse work
If you seek the very essential
And nothing more to desire
Mother nature will give it to you

When you take a fruit
With thorns on the outside
And you prick your hand
You prick in vain

Taking thorns with your hand is bad
Instead of the hand, use a stick
But pay close attention
You will learn the lesson

Why
Why do you have to pay attention
Why
To be able to learn the lesson
Why
Because ambition makes you lose sight
Why
Because love distances from this song
Why
My song is beauty like nature
Why
That's why we must thank our mother earth

How to understand that everything we do affects others
How to create a place where children could play

With lots of dancing and a dose of good humor
Nothing holds it back and reggae keeps it
The most vital to exist will come to you
The most vital to exist will come to you
