LYRICS:
Well the streets are about to burst
Take me away from here
The sky couldn't get much worse
I've lost all control, I fear
No inflection in this text, every day into the next, a story with no plot, What's the point? I forgot.
Take me away from here...
All I need is good food in my belly
and dirt on my feet from a path that leads to a stream
There ain't no such thing as asking for too much
and Simple is all I need
The people around here don't care
What's all this mess about?
They don't smile, they don't even stare.
Our time is running out.
Pretty sure I ain't afraid
but I'm surrounded by it every day
It's become the norm, a perpetual storm
Take me away from here
All I need is a lover who is happy
and a good book to read,
the shade of an oak tree...
There ain't no such thing as asking for too much
and Simple is all I need
The birds on my block have gone
tweet tweet tweet tweedle-dee-dee
My cellular telephone is always on -
it goes Ring ring ring ring-a-ling
Always something new to do
some great thing I cannot miss
but my mind's bent out of shape
and my body's a mess
Take me away from here
Cuz all I need is good food in my belly
and dirt on my feet from a path that leads to a stream
There ain't no such thing as asking for too much
and Simple is all I need
Give me a lover who is happy
and a good book to read
the shade of an oak tree
There ain't no such thing as asking for too much
and Simple is all I need
Simple is all I need!
