Beverly Blues

[Verse 1]
I met a woman in the hills
Offered me some happy pills
Said, "It helps with conversation," started rolling dollar bills
I passed but she asked me something about Beentrill
I said 'that's not me', spilled 805 on my shoes
This brand, that brand, I don't really know, man
I got a pair of Vans but I pulled them from a trash can
Bucket hat on asked me where I got it from
I said, "Target, half priced on the fourth of July"

[Pre-Chorus]
She showed me her skin, asked me what I believe in

[Chorus]
I said it couldn't be love 'cause it's too sincere
And it couldn't be life 'cause death's so near
So could it be God? Wait I forgot, we don't like him here
So I got nothing to gain, nothing to lose
Nothing to hide but I've got something to prove
So believe in me, baby, alleviate the Beverly blues

[Verse 2]
Now she's looking at me funny
Tying knots between her eyes
So I roll another friend in a plot to fill the silence
I pass it to her, ask her what's been weighing on her mind
Says, "Nothing at all," I think she might have been right
My shirt's back on, I guess I figured her wrong
'Cause she's asking me a question, still looking at me long
She said, "What did you mean when you were singing that song?"
I said, "Nothing at all" and turned out the light

[Pre-Chorus]
And I'm asking myself what it is I believe in

[Chorus]
I said it couldn't be love 'cause it's too sincere
And it couldn't be life 'cause death's so near
So could it be God? Wait I forgot, we don't like him here
So I got nothing to gain, nothing to lose
Nothing to hide but I've got something to prove
So believe in me, baby, alleviate the Beverly blues

[Interlude]

[Chorus]
I said it couldn't be love 'cause it's too sincere
And it couldn't be life 'cause death's so near
So could it be God? Wait I forgot, we don't like him here
So I got nothing to gain, nothing to lose
Nothing to hide but I've got something to prove
So believe in me, baby, alleviate the Beverly blues

I said it couldn't be love 'cause it's too sincere
And it couldn't be life 'cause death's so near
So could it be God? Wait I forgot, we don't like him here
So I got nothing to gain, nothing to lose
Nothing to hide but I've got something to prove
So believe in me, baby, alleviate the Beverly blues
