I wanna be simple I wanna let life roll by I wanna take it easy Under a clear blue sky I wanna be lazy Take each day as it comes No dates, no diary Just twiddle my thumbs Now, if you see a man waving from a boat That could well be me, you see, happily afloat I wanna be simple Don't want no cares or woes Pack up my troubles And see how it goes If you see this man happy and at peace Then you'll know that I've downsized and voted with my feet I wanna be simple Don't want no pre-sale fears Don't need no cash till Ringing in my ears I wanna be simple Take each day as it comes I wanna be leaving Just be a bum
