A dalt Avril �s a The Matrix (Scott Spock, Lauren Christy, �s Graham Edwards) �rta �s k�sz�tette.
Listavezet� lett Ausztr�li�ban (hat h�tig), �j-Z�land � Mexik� (kilenc h�tig), m�sodik a Billboard Hot 100-on �s harmadik az Egyes�lt Kir�lys�gban.
A m�sodik legjobban szerepl� dala az amerikai list�n �s egyike volt a legsikeresebb sz�moknak 2002-ben. Egy rekordod is fel�ll�tott Lavigne ugyanis tizenegy egym�st nem k�vet� h�ten volt listavezet� els� sl�ger a Contemporary hit radio nevezet� list�n, ezzel egy�tt Natalie Imbruglia-nak siker�lt ez a "Torn" c�m� sz�m�val.
"Complicated"-et jel�lt�k k�t Grammy d�jra az �v dala �s a legjobb n�i pop �nekes kateg�ri�ban. A dalt kiparodiz�lta "Weird Al" Yankovic 2003-as Poodle hat nev� lemez�n.

"Complicated" arr�l sz�l, hogy az emberek lehetnek hamisak.
Lavigne elmondta a dalr�l:"Az emberek n�ha zavarnak engem, hogy �k nem igaziak, �s �k mondjuk egy m�sik arcot haszn�lnak, k�t-arc�ak."
Avril kijelentette, hogy tapasztalta mind a l�ny �s fi� bar�tai k�z�tt.

A vide�klipp:

A vide�t rendezte a The Malloys. �gy kezd�dik, hogy Lavigne k�ri a zen�szt�rsait, hogy menjenek el a pl�z�ba sz�rakozni. Lelkesednek az �tlet�rt, �s elindulnak g�rdeszk�n. A vide�ban Lavigne �s a band�ja zaklatj�k a v�s�rl�kat, az alkalmazottakat �s a biztons�gi �r�ket. P�ld�ul amikor a t�rsai vicces ruh�ba �lt�znek, �s m�lt�k�ppen jelenik, amikor Lavigne �nekli ""You come over unannounced, dressed up like you're something else".
Van egy felv�tel, ahol Lavigne �nekel egy g�rdeszkaparkban, mik�zben git�ron j�tszik �s a zenekar k�veti. G�rdeszk�sok l�thatok k�r�l�tt�k, mik�zben a dalt j�tssz�k. Mikor ez k�vetkezik, hogy "You fall and you crawl..." akkor az egyik g�rdeszk�s elesik.
A vide�t 2 napig forgatt�k, addig a bev�s�rl�k�zpont nyitva maradt.

Dalsz�veg:

Uh huh, life's like this 

Uh huh, uh huh, that's the way it is 
Cause life's like this 
Uh huh, uh huh that's the way it is 

Chill out whatcha yelling' for? 
Lay back it's all been done before 
And if you could only let it be 
you will see 
I like you the way you are 
When we're drivin' in your car 
and you're talking to me one on one but you've become 

Somebody else round everyone else 
You're watching your back like you can't relax 
You're tryin' to be cool you look like a fool to me 
Tell me 

Why you have to go and make things so complicated? 
I see the way you're acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated 
Life's like this you 
And you fall and you crawl and you break 
and you take what you get and you turn it into honesty 
and promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it 
no no no 

You come over unannounced 
dressed up like you're somethin' else 
where you are and where it's at you see 
you're making me 
laugh out when you strike your pose 
take off all your preppy clothes 
you know you're not fooling anyone 
when you've become 

Somebody else round everyone else 
Watching your back, like you can't relax 
Trying to be cool you look like a fool to me 
Tell me 

Why you have to go and make things so complicated? 
I see the way you're acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated 
Life's like this you 
and You fall and you crawl and you break 
and you take what you get and you turn it into 
honesty 
promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it 
no no no 

Chill out whatcha yelling for? 
Lay back, it's all been done before 
And if you could only let it be 
You will see
