Father left home when you turned 14.
|
Took the best, left the rest for the simple things.
|
The simple things come easy
|
When you've been used.
|
|
Tried every drug in the neighborhood.
|
But nothing can change your mind
|
About the simple things.
|
The simple things come easy when you've been abused.
|
|
Life is cheap, money's free,
|
These are what we call the simple things.
|
|
Desperate now, gun to your mouth,
|
Is death worse than life when you live for the simple things?
|
The simple things come easy
|
When you've no choice,
|
|
Cause it smells outside from the atomic tide,
|
And you have no money and nowhere to hide.
|
The simple things come easy
|
When you've no voice.
|
|
Life is cheap, money's free,
|
These are what we call the simple things.
|
|
The simple things come easy,
|
When the good things in life aren't free.
|
|
I will try to protect you from within myself.
|
Let the simple things run their course.
|
|
The simple things come easy,
|
When the good things in life aren't free.
|
|
I can't trust my family and friends.
|
It's all around, they all want the simple things.
|
The simple things come easy,
|
If you believe.
|
|
I'll draw my lines, choose my defense. when it all comes down
|
They'll kill for the simple things.
|
The simple things come easy
|
If you concede.
|
|
Life is cheap, money's free,
|
These are what we call the simple things,
|
|
The simple things come easy,
|
When the good things in life aren't free.
