AYou just wanna know those Gpeanut butter vibes
[Chorus]
BmMy my, simple sir, thDis ain't gonna work

[Verse]

Alright, come close

Let me show you everything I know

A jungle slang

Spinnin' round my head and I stare

While my naked fool

Fresh out of an icky gooey womb

A woozy youth

Dopes up on her silky smooth perfume

[Pre-Chorus]

Bm D

Right, my little pooh bear, wanna take a chance

You just wanna know those peanut butter vibes

[Chorus]

Bm D

My my, simple sir, this ain't gonna work

A G

Mind my wicked words and tipsy topsy slurs

Bm D

I can't take this place, no I can't take this place

Truth be told

I been there, I done this all before

I take your gloom

I curl it up and puff it into plumes

[Bridge]

Bm D

Hold my hand and float back to the summer time

A G

Tangled in the willows, now our tongues are tied

Bm D

How can I believe you, how can I be nice

A G

Tripping 'round the tree stumps in your summer smile

[Pre-Chorus]

Bm D

Right, my little pooh bear, wanna take a chance

Wanna sip this smooth air, kick it in the sand

I'll say I told you so but you just gonna cry
