[Verse 1]
Read this through, I've written it down for you
Talks about everything I've been goin' through
You can't be fooled if we're the Simpletons, basically
I'll cut straight to what I wanna say to you
I got so much time and not a lot to do
The world to me seems empty
'Nother fine reason why

[Chorus]
I spend my days listenin' to old soul
I spend my, spend my, listenin' to old-old-old soul
I spend my days listenin' to old soul, old soul
I spend my days listenin' to old soul, old soul

[Verse 2]
I gave you control, you gave me a heart attack
And it's the only reason why you never call me back
I'm totally addicted, you are my tragedy
They say it's easy come, I'm sayin' it's easy go
I got me somebody, what I need you for?
Really though, I'll be fine, spendin'

[Chorus]
I spend my days listenin' to old soul, old soul
I spend my, spend my, listenin' to old-old-old soul
I spend my days listenin' to old soul, old soul
I spend my days listenin' to old soul, old soul
[Non-Lyrical Vocal Interlude]

[Chorus]
I spend my, spend my, listenin' to old-old-old soul
I spend my days listenin' to old soul, old soul
I spend my days listenin' to old soul, old soul

[Outro]
Old soul
I... listenin' to
Old soul
I... listenin' to
Old soul
I spend my days listenin' to old soul (Old soul)
