In the air
Over the ocean
Faster and faster
The light is falling
The sky becoming
Harder and harder to use
No need to choose
Uncomplicated
Does it have to be so hard?
Uncomplicated
Hop the fence into the backyard
So many things can go wrong
If you try and understand them
Uncomplicated
Her eyes are closed
Her skin is shining
Like a diamond
Her heart is racing
Everybody's facing
One direction to
Take in the movie
Repat Chorus
Chicken or beef
Adulterated movies
Without a hint of grief
Wear the headphones
Take your relief
Brief instructions
Lighted rows
A water landing
Everybody already knows
They not paying attention
They're worried about their clothes
Repat Chorus
Uncomplicated
Does it have to be so hard?
Uncomplicated
Do you have to look so far?
Uncomplicated
Put the charges on your card
Uncomplicated
Hop the fence into the backyard
So many things can go wrong
If you try and understand them
Uncomplicated
