Its So Easy

I see your sister in her Sunday dress
She's out to please
She pouts her best
She's out to take
No need to try
She's ready to make
It's so easy, easy
When everybody's tryin' to please me baby
It's so easy, easy
When everybody's tryin' to please me


Cars are crashin' every night
I drink n'drive everything's in sight
I make the fire
But I miss the firefight
I hit the bull's eye every night


It's so easy, easy
When everybody's tryin' to please me baby
Yeah it's so easy, easy
When everybody's tryin' to please me
So easy
But nothin' seems to please me
It all fits so right
When I fade into the night
See me hit you
You fall down


I see you standin' there
You think you're so cool
Why don't you just
Fuck off


Ya get nothin' for nothin'
If that's what ya do
Turn around bitch I got a use for you
Besides you ain't got nothin' better to do
And I'm bored


It's so easy, easy
When everybody's tryin' to please me baby
It's so easy, easy
When everybody's tryin' to please me
So easy
But nothin' seems to please me
It all fits so right
When I fade into the night
So come with me
Don't ask me where 'cause I don't know
I'll try ta please you
I ain't got no money but it goes to show
It's so easy




You know, it amazes me that in the last almost 20 years I have never gotten bored of this song. Its still relevant to me. It still rocks me. It still makes me angry.

Duff's bass line at the start. Steven's pounding drum roll intro. The combo of Izzy and Slash riffing over the top of each other. Axl kicks off the vocal: "I see your sister in her Sunday dress" with Duff double tracking the lead vocal line. Its pure rock and fucking roll.

"See me hit you. You fall down"

In 7 words you know how tough Axl is.

"Ya get nothin' for nothin'. If that's what ya do.
Turn around bitch I got a use for you.
Besides you ain't got nothin' better to do
And I'm bored"

Man, just for 5 minutes id love to be some cool rock dude and be able to say that line above to a groupie (who of course would look like either Penny Lane in Almost Famous or Roller Girl or Boogie Nights).

The new Guns stuff is great - i really dig it. Better is the best track of the leaks in my opinion. But theres something missing in these leaked tracks off Chinese Democracy. And theres something missing from the live band that is supporting Axl.

Duff, Steven, Izzy and Slash.
