Britney Spears feat. Will.I.Am - It Should Be Easy (with lyrics)
Britney Spears feat. Will.I.Am - It Should Be Easy
I've been thinking
Just sitting thinking
On why I love you
And all my reasons
And if I lost you
Boy, if I lost you
I'd lose myself
And I wouldn't feel the way I feel now
You bring me zen
Yes, you bring me zen
You make me feel like a million, billion
I'll let you in
But don't you break my heart
Don't you rip me apart, no, don't you rip me apart
Baby, love, it should be easy
It shouldn't be complicated
It should be easy
I don't know how else to say it, say it, say it, say it
(I don't know how to say it)
I've got visions
Boy, I've got visions of me and you
Happily just living
And though they're out there, them beautiful men
But you're my future, baby, you're my right now
If there was a scale from 1 to 10
On my love for you, it's a million, billion
Boy, I'll love you till the day I'm dead
So please, don't mess with my head
Please, don't mess with my head
Baby, love, it should be easy
It shouldn't be complicated
It should be easy
I don't know how else to say it, say it, say it, say it
(I don't know how to say—)
La da di
La di da
It's the only way to love
La da di
La di da
It's the only way to love
(To love, to love, to love...)
I don't know how...
Baby, love, it should be easy
It shouldn't be complicated
It should be easy
I don't know how else to say it
La da di
La di da
It's the only way to love
La da di
La di da
(I don't know how to say--)

Neither and Either
Either refers to one or the other of two
options (positive choice), while neither means not one and not the other
(negative, meaning none). They are used to talk about two people or things as
determiners, pronouns, or conjunctions (either/or, neither/nor).
Key Differences:
- Either (One or the Other): Suggests a choice between
two possibilities (e.g., "You can have either tea or
coffee").
- Neither (Not One or the Other): Indicates that none of
the options are true or accepted (e.g., "Neither dress
fits").
- Usage with Verbs: Neither usually
takes a singular verb in formal English (e.g., "Neither of them is here").
- Correlative
Pairs: Either is paired with or ("Either/or"); Neither is
paired with nor ("Neither/nor").
Examples:
- Either: "We can go to either restaurant,
I don't mind."
- Neither: "Neither candidate
is suitable."
