Complicated - G Dobbs (c) 20010/2005

there's got to be a better life - palm trees, milk and honey
there's got to be a better time --time to find out who we are
there's got to be a better job --dirty work our hands get bloody
gotta be an easier answer, why's it gotta seem so complicated?

there's got to be better words --everything we say sounds funny
there's got to be better people --everybody here's a fraud
there's got to be a better path --the one we're on leads on to nothing
gotta be an easier answer, why's it gotta seem so complicated?

you've got to go a ways out,
before you sink
you've got to go a way down
to touch something
and that's not really so complicated

there's got be better tools --everything breaks down to rubbish
there's got to be better rules --don't agree with these at all
there's got to be a better God can't imagine it's all or nothing
gotta be an easier answer, why's it seem so complicated?

There's got to be a better dream --waking up shouldn't feel so crummy
There's got to be a better team --I don't like the side I'm on
There's got to be abetter home than one with the picket fence and shutters
gotta be an easier answer --why's it gotta seem so complicated?

you've got to go a ways out, before you sink
you've got to go a way down to touch something
that's not really so complicated
