"The Simple Life" is the song from the episode "The Baker King". It is performed by King Roland, Queen Miranda, Princess Amber, Prince James, and Princess Sofia, and is about them adjusting to village life after being transported there from Enchancia Castle so that Roland could have an easier life.

Lyrics

Roland: Life as a king is filled with stresses
I spend my days fixing royal messes
So let me kiss this world goodbye
And give the simple life a try

Don't need my hands in every matter
I only want to mix this batter
Sofia: But we don't know a thing about dough
Amber: Is icky, sticky goop the way to go?

Roland: I know my life will be easy here
Free from the stress and strife
I'm sure our days will be breezy here
Living the simple life

Let's all get off the royal fast track
A bakers life is much more laid back
Miranda: But here in town, we've still got stress
Amber: And not a tiara or fancy dress!

Roland: I know my life will be easy here
Just me with the kids and my wife
I'm sure our days will be breezy here
Living the simple life

Give it a try and you'll see it's fun
Baking a croissant or cinnamon bun
Sofia: But look out, it's rising up and up
Miranda: Just pat it down with a measuring cup

Roland: I just need time to practice cooking
And make the pastries better looking
James: I hope you're right, I really do
Amber: 'Cause what I'm eating tastes like - ew!
Glue!

Miranda, Sofia, Amber, and James: You see life isn't so easy here
Still we got stress and strife
Roland: But I'm sure our days will be breezy here
Living the simple life

Sofia, Amber and James: But it doesn't seem easy...
Or simple or breezy...
Here in this not so simple
Life!
