Easy Easy
King Krule Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Well yeah they got nothing on me
The same old clutch, same old streets
But yeah they got nothing on me
And easy come and easy go
Well yeah I'm sure I told you so
Well they just want you for your dough
Man I'm sure I told you so
And with your dead-end job
That's been eating away your life
You feel a little inside
The trouble and strife
And now you spend your evenings
Searching for another life
And yeah I think mate
I think you've got them in your sights
Well, easy easy
There's no need to take that tone
Well easy
I'm on the telephone
Man just leave us alone
Ow no I should've kept my receipts
'Cause the sandwich I bought
Yeah it's been off for a week
And Tesco's stealing my money
When positivity seems hard to reach
I keep my head down and my mouth shut
'Cause if you going through hell
We just keep going
You're easy
So easy
You're easy
Man just leave us alone?
I'll be one minute on the phone
In the song "Easy Easy" by King Krule, the singer is expressing his frustration towards the societal norms that are expected of him. He seems to be stuck in the same old routine, doing the same things and going to the same places, but despite this, he feels like people still underestimate him. He warns not to be lured in by people who just want your money, and to be aware of how much time and energy is spent working a dead-end job. The singer notes that it can be hard to remain positive when everything seems to be going wrong, but advises that it's important to keep your head down and push through the struggles.
The lyrics also touch on themes of isolation and feeling disconnected from others. The singer mentions how he spends his evenings alone, searching for something more to life than what he has. He feels like he has people in his sights, but it's not clear exactly what he means by this – it could be a reference to him wanting to escape his current surroundings, or it could be a comment on the ways that people try to take advantage of him.
Overall, "Easy Easy" is a commentary on the challenges that come with navigating the expectations of society and the struggles that come with feeling stuck in a certain place in life. It is a relatable song for anyone who has ever felt like they're not living up to their full potential or who has found themselves in a difficult situation.
