Story Behind the Song
This is a multi-tracked recording of me on various instruments. It took about a day to record all the parts, the next days they were mixed by, me again. I kinda just made it up on the fly, I like to create music pieces and then add more instruments to them and see were they go.
The lyrics were written because, at that time in my life, I had alot of different people making me offers and then wasting my time. I realized that it was me, and not these people that held me back, so I narrowed down the problems to my own.
Lyrics
Simplified
I knew right away, with all the things you say,
means there’s not much going on,
So why can’t you get my back and open up this trap,
Can’t you see the light when it’s dawn,
I like things simplified, the tin men they don’t,
I like it simplified, no you can’t take it with you when you go
I see you gave it away, is that something you say,
if it keeps your taxes paid
I don’t know why so please don’t ask me,
Your questions only bring me pain…I can’t be the one to do it again.
I like things simplified, the tin men they don’t,
I like it simplified, no you can’t take it with you when you go
Yeah when it’s simplified, your life’s juice made the stain
But when it’s simplified, the world cleans it, and takes it all away.
Steal and shove and push, you say you ain’t got enough,
Well that’s enough for me,
I never had anything when I came anyway,
I guess I’ll go the same.
Yeah it’s all simplified
( fade to the end)
