Simplify

Written in March 1996 in Canmore, Alberta

Simplify is all you need to know
Simplify and the further you will go
Simplify and you’ll be free
Simplify, quite simply

Simplify your long range plan
Simplify all your matters at hand
Simplify and you’ll be free
Simplify, quite simply

Yeah, you gotta know just where you stand
Yeah, to simplify, simplify ain’t simple, man

I knew a girl with the weight of the world
Tangled up with all her ribbons and her curls
She said “How can I live if it ain’t for me”
I said “Simplify, quite simply”

Yeah, you gotta know just where you stand
Yeah, to simplify, simplify ain’t simple, man

To simplify, can keep you awake
To simplify, can make or break
Sympathize, with those who can’t see
And simplify quite simply.
