Have You Ever Noticed

Have you ever noticed, That simple solutions cost less money, Or no money at all, Which makes them hard to implement. Have you ever noticed, That simple plans are harder to draw up, And even harder to put in place. Have you ever noticed that a simple lifestyle? Looks too boring, To those on the outside looking in. Have you ever noticed, That those who lead complicated lives, Make simple mistakes, And those who are really smart, Make lots of money from calling something simple complicated, And live longer, Because they put less stress on their body, Don't overtax their brain, Have more time for a simple lifestyle, And are unlikely to have a book on their secret to success, In the best sellers' list.
