Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Put it on
And don't say a word
Put it on
The one that I prefer
Put it on
And stand before my eyes
Put it on
Please don't question why
[Chorus]
Can you believe
Something so simple
Something so trivial
Makes me a happy man?
Can't you understand?
Say you believe
Just how easy
It is to please me
Because when you learn
You'll know what makes the world turn
[Verse 2]
Put it on
I can feel so much
Put it on
I don't need to touch
Put it on
Here before my eyes
Put it on
Because you realize
[Chorus]
And you believe
Something so worthless
Serves a purpose
Makes me a happy man
Can't you understand?
Say you believe
Just how easy
It is to please me
Because when you learn
You'll know what makes the world turn
