Lyrics

Simple Pleasures In America

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

A friend came up to me

And she said "why's it always gotta be

Just a sad sad song,

Someone's falling apart,

It's always not enough money and too much heart."

And right away i could see

That's sometimes how it seemed

And i don't wanna be a bitch

And i don't wanna just hate on rich folks

Though that's

Kind of how we have our fun

Still just for her

This is a positive one

[isaac]

I like the bill of rights and i like to ride my bicycle

And everybody get's their little piece of the pie

Yeah everybody get's their little piece of the pie

[dave]

I like to go that extra mile to turn your frown into a smile

And everybody get's their little piece of the pie

Yeah everybody get's their little piece of the pie

[paddy]

I enjoy speaking my mind

And blaring records late at night

And everybody get's their little piece of the pie

Yeah everybody get's their little piece of the pie

[ronnie]

I just wanna drink some whiskey

And hang with good company

And everybody get's their little piece of the pie

Yeah everybody get's their little piece of the pie

For the rest of our lives

We'll probably work for someone else

So for tonight

We are

Having

A

Party

Here's to montrose beach and chicago public library

And everybody get's their little piece of the pie

Yeah everybody get's their little piece of the pie

I like not having to worry about rationed electricity

And everybody get's their little piece of the pie

Yeah everybody get's their little piece of the pie

And access to uncensored news, cheap booze, oh america!

And everybody get's their little piece of the pie

Yeah everybody get's their little piece of the pie

Simple pleasures in

Simple pleasures in america

Simple pleasures

In america
