Little boys and girls, livin' lost in the world

I guess their mommas and their papas just forgot how to love them

Sad people everywhere, thinkin' nobody cares

How we ever gonna reach, each and every one of them



Oh the complicated nature in the way this world revolves

Can trick us into thinkin' we've got problems we can't solve

We gotta get back to the basics, break it down to black and white

Take a little time to rewind and simplify



Open up your heart, just one little spark

Can ignite that fire that'll guide us to Heaven

Right here, right now, everybody sing loud

One by one, we can help them together



Oh the complicated nature in the way this world revolves

Can trick us into thinkin' we've got problems we can't solve

We gotta get back to the basics, break it down to black and white

Take a little time to rewind and simplify



Oh the complicated nature in the way this world revolves

Can trick us into thinkin' we've got problems we can't solve

We gotta get back to the basics, break it down to black and white

Take a little time to rewind and simplify

Take a little time, take a little time

To simplify
