Former Strypes guitarist Josh McClorey’s 2nd single, “Everything Was Easy” was produced by former Strypes producer Charlie Russell and written by McClorey about the stresses of growing up and having to adapt to adult life.
[Verse 1]
Ain’t it just such a waste
Shit didn’t fall into place
You were making love last month
Now you’re struggling making face
Funny how things change
You were talking on the phone
Lost and feeling alone
You didn’t wanna come home
Petrified of “I told you so's"
Such a delicate soul
[Pre-Chorus]
We’re all getting older
But we can’t seem to grow up
Or move on
Now it’s over
There ain’t much to say
But I’m sure you’ll agree
[Chorus]
Everything was easy
‘Til we all started fucking our friends
This town ain’t big enough
No, not for us dear
Everyone got greedy
Now we’re all stuck trying to pretend
That it’s this town that ain’t big еnough
No, not for us dear
[Spoken]
Are we rеally interested in the same things?
I wonder
[Outro]
Everything was easy
‘Til we all started fucking our friends
