Easy Come Easy Go

COLLIDEOSCOPE · Released 11 April 2022

Lyrics

Sometimes I think there’ll be no peace on earth till we find someone on Mars to hate Sometimes I wonder if we’re all scarred at birth Does anyone have any say in their own fate? Supply and demand, you reap and you sow It’s all easy come, it’s all easy go You give and you take your friend and your foe It’s all easy come, it’s all easy go Even if I lose all of the things that I own Like Mother Hubbard’s Rover felt without his bone Forest of trees are just seeds that have grown I’ve still got the seeds I haven’t yet sown Supply and demand, you reap and you sow It’s all easy come, it’s all easy go You give and you take your friend and your foe It’s all easy come, it’s all easy go Sometimes I think there’ll be no peace on earth till we find someone on Mars to hate Sometimes I wonder if we’re all scarred at birth Does anyone have any say in their own fate? Even if I lose all of the things that I own Like Mother Hubbard’s Rover felt without his bone Forest of trees are just seeds that have grown I’ve still got the seeds that I haven’t yet sown Things’ll never seem good enough, but things are never that bad Things are gonna get better, things’ll only look bad if you let them It’s all easy come, it’s all easy go…

About the song

I like the dark humour in this song - it’s about not taking yourself too seriously, ‘rolling with the punches’ in life and not letting setbacks stop you from moving forward.
