    Simplicity

    You know just who you are
    Youre a bright, shinning star
    Glowing from across the room
    Exquisite like a flower in bloom
    Oh, and that perfume

    If i was to say to you
    That you were too good to be true
    Why, you might say that i was lying
    Foolish man i am for even trying
    I think im dying

    It's simplicity
    And youre the definition
    It's electricity
    And youre the electrician
    It's simplicity
    Simplicity

    Oh the things you do to me
    They dont come just naturally
    Got a funny feeling in my bones
    Beg your pardon miss, but would you condone
    The way that i may behave?
    But its your love that i just crave

    Excuse me miss, shall we dance?
    Lets make more of this romance
    We can rave all through the night
    Promise to have you home before daylight
    Come on darling say you will
    Dont leave me in an utter shrill

    it's simplicity
    And youre the definition
    It's complicity
    And youre the deposition
    It's simplicity
    Simplicity

    The night is young, and so are we
    we'll walk the city just you and me
    No one can stop this passionate spree
    We're so in love and we're free

    It's simplicity
    And youre the definition
    It's electricity
    And youre the electrician
    It's simplicity
    Simplicity

    Its tactical
    And youre the mission
    Its magical
    And youre the magician

    Its paradise
    And youre the ocean
    Its love, love, love
    And youre the potion

    Its a gun
    And youre the ammunition
    Its a song
    And youre the musician

    Its Simplicity
    Simplicity
    Its so wonderful
    And so bountiful
    Its so magical
    And so practical
    And so capital

    Its Simplicity
    Simplicity

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
