Easy Answers Lyrics

Promises made in the dark
Dissolve by the light of day (easy answers)
Ain't no telling what will be
Always been that way (easy answers)
Just one thing I know for sure
Someone got to pay (easy answers)
Ain't no easy anwers
That's what I got to say (easy answers)
Chorus:
Easy answers
Find them anywhere
(easy answers, easy answers)
Ain't nobody care
(easy answers, easy answers)
Take it nice and slow,
I don't wanna know,
I don't wanna know, No.
Love's an easy word to say
Rolls right off the tongue (easy answers)
Seems to pop up like a weed
In every song thats sung (easy answers)
Always sound so easy
When it falls upon the ear (easy answers)
Ain't no easy answers
You won't listen to me here (easy answers)
Chorus:
Shut your eyes and listen
To the colors of your mind (easy answers)
Give yourself a breath of air
Let your soul unwind (easy answers)
You don't have to say a word
If you got this to say (easy answers)
'Cause no one ever said
There gonna be an easy way (easy answers)
Chorus:
JAM
Promises made in the dark
Dissolve by the light of day (easy answers)
Ain't no telling what will be
Always been that way (easy answers)
Just one thing I know for sure
Someone got to pay (easy answers)
Ain't no easy anwers
That's what I got to say (easy answers)
Chorus:

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I like the live versions when Bobby sings: "you don't have to say a word, if you got dick to say..."
