Nick is a genius on guitar, vocals and lyrics. The message is simple – we can make this world a wonderful place, learn to be nice to each other, be peaceful and happy – or we can be nasty, intolerant, callous, hate-filled bastards.
It’s simple.
Simple
Simple
Simple
No drums, no bass,
No style, nice easy pace,
Simple
Same chords, different order,
Nothing to declare at the border,
Simple
Same cut, same chase,
Same old shoes, same old face,
Simple
Simple
Same faults, same flaws,
Do re mi, and that’s all,
Simple
Simple
I’ve got everything I need
I’ve got everything I need
I’ve got everything I need
And more…
Glass of wine, laugh at a joke,
A good time down the line, if it ain’t broke,
Simple
Simple
Acoustic guitar, and a kiss on the cheek,
Edited highlights of the week,
Simple
Simple
Food, clothing, shelter,
Simple
Simple
Life, the universe and everything,
Simple
Simple
We’ve got everything we need
We’ve got everything we need
We’ve got everything we need
And more…
No symbol, no logo, no product placement,
No market, no how, no no no no no no no,
Simple
No enticing jiggerycakery,
No icing from the bakery,
Simple
Simple
One, two, three,
Simple
Simple
Life, the universe and everything,
Simple
Simple
We’ve got everything we need
We’ve got everything we need
We’ve got everything we need
And more…

Nick does have a dry wit, and some wisdom. He can be a laugh, and be profound. Mostly he is very entertaining, but knows how to challenge the things he sees as wrong without getting too preachy!
A rare skill!!! He’s a genius.
It’s so simple and the majority don’t see it. We are in paradise and don’t know where we come from or where we are going, so be nice to one another please! It’s simple!!!!!!!
Simple indeed. Yet the greed, selfishness and hatred clog up the arteries and impair the vision.
love one another.
It’s simple!
Thanks Andrew!
Aye! x
Pedant Alert ! First word of the song is a shouted N _ A _K _E_ D and it`s No enticing jiggery cakery , no icing from the half-bakery.
Brilliant song and ocassionally bastardized on long journeys to `Whimple` after a small town near us here in Devon
Cheers Andy.
