Lyrics

It's Not Easy (Demo)

[Verse 1]

Like a clock ticking

Swinging this way and that

I got no idea why the time has gone flat

[Verse 2]

And I had a vision

A picture in mind

The colours are running

Can't make out the signs

[Chorus]

It's not easy

It's not easy

It's not easy

It's not easy

[Verse 3]

Check shirt or Sta-Prest

Waistcoat or blouse

I've got no idea what to wear round the house

[Verse 4]

And I'll leave a marker

A thinly veiled threat

Los Pollos Hermanos

Will get you there yet

[Chorus]

It's not easy

It's not easy

It's not easy

It's not easy

[Bridge]

No spunk in your trunk

And no fun in your funk

It's not easy

No eurgh while you're earnest

No fire in your furnace

It's not easy

[Chorus 2]

It's not easy (easy)

It's not easy (easy)

It's not easy (easy)

It's not easy (easy)

[Bridge 2]

No spunk in your trunk

And no fun in your funk

It's not easy (easy)

No eurgh while you're earnest

No fire in your furnace

It's not easy (easy)

You knock me for six

With your spellbinding tricks

That's how you get your kicks

It's not easy

And as I get older

Feels more like a coma

It's not easy (easy)

[Outro]

La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
