Song of the Day

When I was in grade 4 or 5, I loved to listen to Avril Lavigne. I would play her CD all the time, to the point where everyone in my family knew the lyrics. My two favoutite songs were "Skater Boy" and "complicated". For today's song of the day, I'm going to be posting the lyrics to complicated.

Whenever I hear this song, it brings me back to the days where the sun shone down and I was outside tanning with a cold drink it my hand. I remember the Summer Days and the Camping Days. The reason for this is when my cousin Amanda (she's a year younger) and I were camping, with our families, like we do every summer. We call this weekend "Sister's Weekend" because my mom adn her 2 sisters always go camping away with the kids for the weekend. Creative name eh?
But anyways, we were camping and Amanda and I had been drinking. We were in the bathroom charging our phones, when my mom came in. She hopped in the shower, and we were all talking and laughing. The radio was playing in the background when my cousin noticed that there was a quiet hum of the radio going. Just as she pointed it out, the song ended and Avril's song Complicated came on.
Amanda and I looked at each other, and started sing/yelling the lyrics. My mom heard us, and started "singing" along. We were having So much fun, that I don't think we noticed how loud we were getting. (But we must have been pretty loud because the bathroom was pretty busy before and no one walked in during that song). After we had a fun time singing that song, we all went back to chatting and then we all left.
As we were walking out, a man from up the road called out to us "Beautiful voices ladies!" and we just about DIED!
"opps" I thought, then just hollered back "Thanks!" and we walked to the campsite. It was pretty embarassing, but whenever I hear this song, I am always brought back to that wnoderful time camping.

So here it is-Complicated:


Uh huh, life's like this
Uh huh, uh huh, that's the way it is
Cause life's like this
Uh huh, uh huh that's the way it is

Chill out whatcha yelling' for?
Laid back it's all been done before
And if you could only let it be
you will see
I like you the way you are
When we're drivin' in your car
and you're talking to me one on one but you've become

Somebody else round everyone else
You're watching your back like you can't relax
You're tryin' to be cool you look like a fool to me
Tell me

Why do you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this you
And you fall and you crawl and you break
and you take what you get and you turn it into honesty
and promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it
no no no

You come over unannounced
dressed up like you're somethin' else
where you are ain't where it's at you see
you're making me
laugh out when you strike your pose
take off all your preppy clothes
you know you're not fooling anyone
when you've become

Somebody else round everyone else
Watching your back, like you can't relax
Trying to be cool you look like a fool to me
Tell me

Why do you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this you
and You fall and you crawl and you break
and you take what you get and you turn it into
honesty
promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it
no no no

Chill out whatcha yelling for?
Lay back, it's all been done before
And if you could only let it be
You will see

Somebody else round everyone else
You're watching your back, like you can't relax
You're trying to be cool, you look like a fool to me
Tell me

Why do you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this you
and you fall and you crawl and you break
and you take what you get and you turn it into
honesty
promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it
no no no

Why do you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're acting like your somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this you
You fall and you crawl and you break
and you take what you get and you turn it into honesty
promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it
no no no
