Paolo Plug #1 - Little Things by Paolo Delfino

it's not the cars you drive
not the flashy title on your tabletop
the fancy clothes you wear or the way you do your hair up
oh i don't know, maybe it's just me

but i believe a little kid would know what to do
doesn't need that a crutch or is cos we forgot
the simple things we're meant to do
we eat and we drink
sometimes the problem is we just don't think

nobody knows
how this world got so complicated
but i'll tell right now

i don't need fancy titles or all your bling-bling
if you just can't be nice then that just doesn't swing

i don't count pennies or all the fancy things that you do
you're given a lifetime
to do the little things that you should do

won't you stay on a while
stop and smell the flowers by the roadside
martha's busy washing and she can't decide
to stay or to go
don't let me say i told you so

perhaps you thought you needed it that much
it was never meant to be this complex
living in your bottled drinks labled "life's regrets"
i haven't sold my soul yet
if only i counted the price i would pay

nobody knew
that life could be so disappointing
but i'll tell right now

i don't need fancy titles or all your bling-bling
if you just can't be nice then that just doesn't swing

i don't check ratings and i don't read your accolades
only good for a ride at the penny arcade

i don't count fame and i don't care bout the trophies you won
the end of the day you go back to square one

i don't count pennies or all the fancy things that you do
you're given a lifetime
to do the little things that you should do
