Lyrics
You tell me you’re too busy, you’ve got too much on your plate
Too much on your dance card and you’re fifteen minutes late
Too many fish to fry, too much on your agenda
Cut the humble braggin’, you’re the number-one offender
If life’s too complicated, that’s what delete is for
You’re cuttin’ out the gluten, and layin’ off the fat
The sugar, meat, and dairy; How’d you ever eat all that?
Shrink that carbon footprint, screen time and fake news
Don’t listen to the critics, those nasty-talkin’ fools
If life’s too complicated, that’s what delete is for
That’s what delete is for, that’s what delete is for
That’s what delete is for, that’s what delete is for
If your life’s too complicated, that’s what delete is for
I once had a man, a vexation to my soul
My mama told me, “Girl, you need some self-control
Cut him loose, tell him ‘Hit the road, Jack’
Scrape the shit off your shoes and don’t ever look back”
If life’s too complicated, that’s what delete is for
My daddy’s motto, “K-I-double-S
‘Keep It Simple Stupid’, stay away from all that mess
Do the right thing and you’ll have no regrets
Seek to understand, forgive, and forget”
If life’s too complicated, that’s what delete is for
That’s what delete is for, that’s what delete is for
That’s what delete is for, that’s what delete is for
If your life’s too complicated, that’s what delete is for
“Brevity is the soul of wit”
That was Willie Shakespeare and he wasn’t no dimwit
“It’s not the notes I play, but the silence in between ‘em”
So said Miles, the king of minimalism
If life’s too complicated, that’s what delete is for
That’s what delete is for, that’s what delete is for
That’s what delete is for, that’s what delete is for
If your life’s too complicated, that’s what delete is for
That’s what delete is for
