Simple Song Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Wake up, here I go
Cram it all down my throat
Stomach's so full that I wish I could choke
7 a.m., my head's already in a spin
As soon as I'm out that door
Bam, it hits me like a ton of those red bricks
Can't dig myself out of this highest ditch
This madness
[Pre-Chorus]
I swear, sometimes, I can't tell
Which way is up, which way is down
It's all up in my face, need to push it away
Somebody, push it away
So all that I can hear
[Chorus]
Is a simple song
Sing along now
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
[Verse 2]
Midday sun beatin' on the concrete
Burnin' up my feet
Too many cars on the street
The noise, the red, the green
Makes me wanna scream
Five o'clock, now it's bumper on bumper on bumper
Horns honkin', nobody's looking, but everybody's talkin'
Just another day on this highway
Wake up, here I go
Cram it all down my throat
Stomach's so full that I wish I could choke
7 a.m., my head's already in a spin
As soon as I'm out that door
Bam, it hits me like a ton of those red bricks
Can't dig myself out of this highest ditch
This madness
[Pre-Chorus]
I swear, sometimes, I can't tell
Which way is up, which way is down
It's all up in my face, need to push it away
Somebody, push it away
So all that I can hear
[Chorus]
Is a simple song
Sing along now
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
[Verse 2]
Midday sun beatin' on the concrete
Burnin' up my feet
Too many cars on the street
The noise, the red, the green
Makes me wanna scream
Five o'clock, now it's bumper on bumper on bumper
Horns honkin', nobody's looking, but everybody's talkin'
Just another day on this highway
[Pre-Chorus]
I swear, sometimes, I can't tell
Which way is up, which way is down
It's all up in my face, need to push it away
Somebody, push it away
'Cause all I wanna hear
[Chorus]
Oh, is a simple song, mmm
Sing along now
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
[Post-Chorus]
Hey
Sing along now
(La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la)
Sing along
(La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la)
[Bridge]
What I'd give to turn it off
And make it stop, make it stop
You gotta make it stop
So all that I can hear
I swear, sometimes, I can't tell
Which way is up, which way is down
It's all up in my face, need to push it away
Somebody, push it away
'Cause all I wanna hear
[Chorus]
Oh, is a simple song, mmm
Sing along now
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
[Post-Chorus]
Hey
Sing along now
(La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la)
Sing along
(La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la)
[Bridge]
What I'd give to turn it off
And make it stop, make it stop
You gotta make it stop
So all that I can hear
[Chorus]
Is a simple song, mmm
Sing along now
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
[Outro]
La, la, la, la, la
La, da, da, da
La, la, la, la, la
La, da, da, da
Is a simple song, mmm
Sing along now
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
[Outro]
La, la, la, la, la
La, da, da, da
La, la, la, la, la
La, da, da, da

Genius Annotation
Simple Song is the 10th song off Breakout, Miley’s debut album.
In this song Miley talks about the pressure she suffers for being a “Disney girl” and how this affects her personal life.
In 2015 she gave a interview to Marie Claire and talked about the times when she was on Hannah Montana:
“I would have anxiety attacks. I’d get hot flashes, feel like I was about to pass up or throw up. It would happen a lot before shows, and I’d have to cancel. Then the anxiety started coming from anxiety. I would be with my friends, thinking, I should be having so much fun. You get in this hole that seems like you’re never going to be able to get out of.”
