Simple Life - Fox Stevenson

Well, we’ve got too much time on our hands

So we’ve been looking at ourselves too much

It’s like if anybody meets your demands

You get embarrassed and you start to blush

When everyone’s opinions are wasted

It’s getting too complicated

What’s this notion of a simple life?

Do you think that we’re ever gonna get it right?

I don’t understand how it is what we planned

Could ever go so wrong

So I guess if we give it just a little time

Then we’ll know if it’s ever worth another try

It’s a line in the sand, it’s a final stand

So why’d it take so long?

I dare to say these problems are your problems

Please stop telling me you’ve got them

Is it fair to say that we’re not in this together

When we’re sorted into these columns?

I can’t change the world, but would if I could

It’s not all about looking good

What’s this notion of a simple life?

Do you think that we’re ever gonna get it right?

I don’t understand how it is what we planned

Could ever go so wrong

So I guess if we give it just a little time

Then we’ll know if it’s ever worth another try

It’s a line in the sand, it’s a final stand

So why’d it take so long?

Don’t hold your breath

Gotta stay suppressed

Doing our best 'til there’s nothing left

We’re tired, but we’re better when moving

My dear, know there’s nothing to fear

Hold that smile from ear-to-ear

In memory of the people we’re losing.

I can’t change the world, but would if I could

It’s not all about looking good

What’s this notion of a simple life?

Will we ever know what to do?

Don’t think that we’re ever gonna get it right

If we listen to you

If we listen to you

What’s this notion of a simple life?

Do you think that we’re ever gonna get it right?

I don’t understand how it is what we planned

Could ever go so wrong

So I guess if we give it just a little time

Then we’ll know if it’s ever worth another try

It’s a line in the sand, it’s a final stand

So why’d it take so long?
