[Chorus]

Baby, it's easy when you get just what you want

But sometimes it's just much harder than it looks

And baby, it's easy when you get just what you need

But sometimes it all just goes

Straight to hell

Oh, well

[Verse 1]

And maybe I'm just making this more complicated than it has to be

But I suppose that's all based on your ability to perceive

What is normal

And what is not

And I've been waiting for some destiny

Or some clarity, or something bigger than me

[Verse 2]

And maybe you're just trying to impress somebody else

But, these decisions that you make are all part of a charade

And I hope that it is worth it

I said, I hope that it is worth it

'Cause I've been waiting for some sympathy

'Cause honesty just isn't doing the trick

And I've been praying for some clarity or a prophecy

To hold on to what I believe

[Bridge]

Swimming around in the shallow end of life is such a drag

But, if you go too far off the deep end

You could lose everything you've ever had

[Chorus]

And baby, it's easy when you get just what you need

But, sometimes it all just goes straight to

Hell
