Lazy

Every time I see a puppy upon a summer's day

A puppy dog at play, my heart is filled with envy

That's because my heart is yearning to pass the time away

Like that pup, 'cause I'm all fed up

And though it's wrong to be, I long to be lazy

I wanna be lazy

I long to be out in the sun

With no work to be done

Under that awning they call the sky

Stretching and yawning

And let the world go drifting by

I wanna peep through that deep tangled wildwood

Counting sheep 'til I sleep like a child would

With a great big valise full of books to read where it's peaceful

And I'm killing time being lazy

Life is short, and getting shorter with each day that goes by

And how the time does fly, before you know it's over

That's why I'm in such a hurry to pack my things and fly

To a spot where it's nice and hot

And hear the birdies sing while I'm being lazy

I wanna be lazy

I long to be out in the sun

With no work to be done

Under that awning they call the sky

Stretching and yawning

And let the world go drifting by

I wanna peep through that deep tangled wildwood

Counting sheep 'til I sleep like a child would

With a great big valise full of books to read where it's peaceful

And I'm killing time being lazy
