The song is pretty straight forward imho It's a song about someone(s) with the bad case of the Monday's or any day for that matter. How people get caught up in the hustle-bustle of everyday life and make a bigger deal out of things that really do not deserve half the anxiety. Simplest exercises refers to "mind exercises" -I am personally reminded of a list of thought exercises I read in a book by the Dalai Lama but could be as simple as counting to ten.
What I am curious about is the song name. I think X could be short for exercises but my first thought was X being the chromosome we all have in common. I picture some really resentful person getting all caught up in some minute thing for work, but when they stop to think about life, and really step back and zoom out, you realize the basic necessities of life(food, love, shelter, happiness) are the only things that matter and that we really are all the same.
