Lyrics

Simple is a happy glow,
Simple is that first hello,
But every glow, can smolder to remorse.
And that one hello, change a life's whole course.
Simple is a bird in air,
Simple is another's care
But every bird's a physicist
And every care, one you're bound to miss
Some would have us simplify or better yet just tell a lie
Hide any truth that horrifies
And don't admit that people die
Two plus x may equal four and x plus one times three is nine
But life has other ways of keeping score
I'll tally yours if you'll tally mine.
Simple is a complex want
And complex is a simple poem
Simple is a lover's moan
Complex is a broken bone
Simple are the Death Star plans
Complex is a high school dance
Simple is a second chance
Complex is the state of France
Normcore styles and serif fonts
And kendo sticks and Manuel Kant
And flirty smiles and unmanned drones
And crocodiles and proper scones
And H Simplex can cause cold sores
(That line is one we should ignore)
Yes, complex can conceal the dots
But even the longest verse must stop
And even the strongest beat can DROP.
All bubble wrap goes POP!-POP!-POP!
And up next we take it from the top
As even the longest verse must!
Simple is an iron ore
Simple is the march to war
But not every ore's an amethyst
Nor every war, a reason to enlist
Simple is a cardboard hearse
Complex is a star that bursts
But every hearse holds a ghostly mist
And every star lights a dark abyss
Simple is a little bear
Simple is a jealous glare
But every bear's carnivorous
And every glare, forgive them this
Simple is "we're out of stock"
Complex is "we'd better not"
Volcanic rocks and flight E-TOPS.
And third degrees and co-vert ops
(And dimpled cheeks and Thomas Hobbes)
Vaccines that cause autistic thought
(Delete that bit; I've got brain rot)
Yes, simple can connect the dots
But even the longest line must stop.
Even the strongest beat can drop
A guillotine goes CHOP!-CHOP!-CHOP!
You'll never know what you forgot
And even the longest line must
Simple is I don't reply
Harder is a good goodbye
Simple is a fading sky
Harder is another try
Simple is another guy
Harder is to answer why
Harder is another try
Simple is another guy
Harder is to answer why
But every sky will come again
And arguably the guys all blend
And empty words can break a friend
Complex breaks that time can't mend
And the hardest bye is at the
Hopeful was that simple start
Simple is a hopeful heart
Simple was that simple need
But even simple things need more than simple hope
To simply succeed
