Another song again written by Ian Lilly (the words ....in Switzerland) and myself.
I AM JUST A SIMPLE MAN AND I SING A SIMPLE SONG -
I SING OF BLACK AND WHITE AND I SING OF RIGHT & WRONG .
I COULD FLIRT WITH FAME AND FORTUNE IF I SANG IN SHADES OF GREY ,
IF I DID NOT QUIZ OR QUESTION , IF I LOOKED THE OTHER WAY .
THERE ARE HIGH AND MIGHTY PLACES WHERE I KNOW I DON'T BELONG…
LIFE IS NEVER EVER SIMPLE WHEN YOU SING A SIMPLE SONG.
I AM JUST A SIMPLE MAN AND I SING A SIMPLE SONG -
I SING OF RICH AND POOR AND I SING OF WEAK AND STRONG .
IF I FIGHT AGAINST INJUSTICE , BUT AGREE WITH GIVE AND TAKE ,
WHEN IT'S DO OR DIE OR DOUBTFUL DO I BEND OR DO I BREAK ;
DO I SWIM AGAINST THE CURRENT , DO I DIVE IN WITH THE THRONG ......
LIFE IS NEVER EVER SIMPLE WHEN YOU SING A SIMPLE SONG .
I AM JUST A SIMPLE MAN AND I SING A SIMPLE SONG -
MUST I ALWAYS SING ALONE OR WILL SOMEONE SING ALONG ?
COULD THERE Be a ROUSING CHORUS OR at LEAST A BRAVE NEW BAND?
COULD WE SEND A WORD OF WARNING TO ALL CORNERS OF THE LAND ?
THOUGH THE WORLD IS HARD OF HEARING WE MUST SING IT LOUD & LONG …………
LIFE IS NEVER EVER SIMPLE WHEN YOU SING A SIMPLE SONG ...
LIFE IS NEVER EVER SIMPLE WHEN YOU SING A SIMPLE SONG .
