I'll Take the Easy Way
You come home from work all covered in sweat
Just in time to see me get out of bed
I don't care how hard you try
I'll take the easy way and still get by

I know I love you, you say "prove it to me"
But what you're asking smells like work to me
I don't need no alibi
I'll take the easy way and still get by

Bridge
Don't you worry 'bout me baby - I'll take the easy way
And I don't care what the people might say

I'm the high priest of nothing baby can't you see
Can't let a guilty conscience bother me
They say I need to work but I don't know why
I'll take the easy way and still get by

I don't need no assistance
On the path of least resistance
I can't lose 'cause I don't even try
I'll take the easy way and still get by

Bridge
Don't you worry 'bout me baby - I'll take the easy way
And I don't care what the people might say

Solo (16 bars)

Bridge
Don't you worry 'bout me baby - I'll take the easy way
And I don't care what the people might say

Bridge
Gettin' by ain't so hard to do
Just sit right back and let it happen to you (just watch me do it)
