Simple Life Lyrics

No one? Wow... as far as i'm concerned this was the second best single on this album. I think it talks about how overcomplicated life has become, and the desire we all have to "break out" of what has become the status-quo and get back to the simplicity of times past. This song carries a similar theme to Queen's "I want to break Free" with a different execution. That's my take anyway.

Better late than never. A different take: Considering when written/performed in 1992 gays were not very publicly popular. My take is that EJ is lamenting and crying out until the time gays can "come out." That being said, Playdrv4me makes some good points..
