Easy living is hard to do
Now summer’s gone &
The leaves are falling on the ground
And I don’t want to know something
That happened so many years ago
Easy living I’d like to know
Easy living get next to you
Come a little closer I’ll tie your hands
Easy living don’t understand
I don’t understand
Little child
Hide and seek
Your heart away
Your life
Is filled
With so much cunning
Simple twist on the golden rule
Do for yourself what you gotta do
Drip by drip your precious blood
Soon it’s going to run away
Not more where that came from
Soon you’re gonna fade away
Easy living I’d like to know
My landlord won’t let me be
Judge and jury won’t let me breathe
Spare me from their jealous lies
Jealous lies
Little child
You’ve learned
To live dreaming
Your life
Is filled
With so much cunnig
So many people wondering
Where you been for a year or more
They don’t want to see you
On that hanging tree
And they don’t want to know
But I wanna know
So much more than this
