Easy Lyrics

I wish it could be so easy

Wish it could be so easy

Wish it could be so easy

Walking down the street at a half past ten

I see the busker on the corner getting pennies again (c'mon...)

And in the bars they'll have mannequin bands

They're like, false faces glued to cardboard stands

You know, it's not easy

I'm sure you relate

Break your back, then counterfeits get parades

It's not fair

It's plain to see

You can't always rely on your fantasies

Clap your hands if you think it's easy

Well, I guess I was wrong

Clap your hands if you think it's easy

Well, why don't you play along?

Promises emptier than smiles in this ghost town

They're only trying to help you

They're only trying to help you

It hits you harder than a train at sundown

They're only trying to help you

They're only trying to help you, though

Easy

Wish it could be easy

Isn't that all what we want?

That's what we want

Easy

Easy

Wish it could be easy

Not looking for a cheat

Just a way to defeat the monsters

I know some of you were thinking, Eric, have a little faith

It's not all roses

It's not too late

Well, that's true

It's ragweed, too, and dandelion seeds and willow roots

I want justice for the hardworking masses

Not the fakers with the lucky fast passes

You can call us whatever you choose...

But don't judge till you've worn our shoes

Clap your hands if you think it's easy

Well, I guess I was wrong

Clap your hands if you think it's easy

Why don't you play along?

Promises emptier than smiles in this ghost town

They're only trying to help you

They're only trying to help you

It hits you harder than a train at sundown

Easy

Wish it could be easy

Easy

Isn't that all that we want?

Yeah, that's what we want

Easy

Monsters.
