Simple Pleasures Songtext
von The Divine Comedy

Jumpin′ on the bed, standin' on your head
tryin′ not to fall
Drivin' in a car, lookin' at the stars
feelin′ kinda small

Climbin′ up the tree, swimin' in the sea
riding on a bike
Shakin′ tambourines, rememberin' your dream
And holding you tight

Simple pleasures
That′s what we like
Simple pleasures
Alright

Sleepin' on a train, singin′ in the rain
talkin' with your friends
Knowin' that you don′t ever have to go
back to school again


Eatin′ an orange, cuttin' your own fringe
findin′ words that rhyme
Readin' Ogden Nash, growin′ a moustache
And knowing you are mine

Simple pleasures
That's what we like, yeah
Simple pleasures
Alright

Sitting in a chair when nobody′s there
Starin' into space
Listenin' to the birds

Soakin′ in the tub, freakin′ out the dog, she says

"What you doin', lyin′ in a pool of water?
What you doin', lyin′ in a pool of water?
What you doin', lyin′ in a pool of water?"
Hold me, stroke me, feed me

You know what's a simple pleasure?
It's when you go to a show
And you put your hands together, come on
One, two, three, go
