Simple Life Lyrics - Simple Life - Mason Jennings

Well she's sitting on the edge of my bed 

Taking her shirt off over her head 

I should be somewhere else but i am right here instead 

As this old scene unfurls 

In this ever changing world 

I ask myself how did i lose my woman for this here girl 

Well she lays back like a queen 

In some dark medieval dream 

All at once god becomes a big old machine 

And i've got one hand on the switch 

Building up a fearsome itch 

To turn him off for a little while 

And dig myself a six foot ditch 

'cause every move she makes 

Tempts this here bough to break 

I know man lives on love 

How much love can one man take 

If there's a train coming I can't see it 

If there's a lesson here I don't need it 

I'm gonna slide right down into my own bad idea 

So save it if you will 

Stop the doctor, crush the pill 

The simple life is overated 

I have simply had my fill
