If you took me high if you took me low
Maybe having just a little bit would keep me moving slow
Maybe grooving in a sure tune would give me a sense of that Aum
But the fourth of July keeps getting stuck in my eye
And their bombs and their rocket satellites to spy
Keep me raising my shoulders and ducking my head
Walking like a robot less alive than dead
If I remember you and you remember me
We'll be sure to say hello the next time we see
Ourselves misplaced shuffling to the pace
Of the cog frog hop of humanity
I never been to Jersey, never been to Spain
But you can be sure I'm going Eden and coming back again
Cause holding my mind in this time leaves me sighing that...

It's so easy (it's so easy) When I look out from my own eyes
And see the world as it's smiling

The turnstile spun me back the way I'd come
So I moaned and I groaned and then started to hum
About the doldrum space I was hoping to replace
With a portrait filled with the face
Of the one I love carrying a dove
Having swooped up the beaten and taking them above
A world unsure how to stock the pure
On a ruling shelf it's always those with wealth
Drinking forever to their very own health
Feeling mighty proud of their stealth
Still these walls that I beat leave me marching without feet
And creepin' and cheatin' and leavin' myself
Underneath the magazines on your coffee table
Always feeling so unable
To get your attention as you chit chat 'bout the happenings in your
fable

It's so easy (it's so easy) When I look out from my own eyes
And see the world as it's smiling

The broom won't mop and the mop won't sweep
Up this mess that's festering across the street
To ignore is to implore it to come knocking upon my back door
Still I know there's a shore where there's always more
Of these troubles and shoveling provides no cure
Am I a man to be a rubber band holding much more than I possibly
can
When I finally snap and am set free from the trap
I'll stop myself from looking back
At the tides and the winds as they begin to snack
'Pon the immortal me I'd hoped would stay in my tracks
And when my ways reach the end and there's no nickel left to lend
And I'm told I've got to go back and start again
I will not break, I will not bend I'll just start crying that...

It's so easy (it's so easy) When I look out from my own eyes
And see the world as it's smiling
