I'm So Lazy



  I'm so lazy
  Just lay around all day
  Eating Cheetos and watching TV shows
  I don't know how I got this way

  I'm so lazy
  You know it's sad but true
  The world's turning all around me but I couldn't
  Care less than I do

  I don't go outside unless I need some milk
  Or some bread or a six pack of beer
  Otherwise it would take a nine-oh earthquake
  To shake me out of here
  I keep the blinds drawn to keep the daylight out
  I lay around in my underwear

  I grab the remote and watch daytime talk shows
  Watching those fools - what bunch of losers
  Parading their lives - ain't they got no shame

  I'm so lazy
  I've gained a bunch of pounds
  Haven't done a push-up in two or three months
  I don't know how I get around

  I'm so lazy
  I haven't worked for ages
  I couldn't care if I found another job
  One of those tragic mid-life stages

  I don't care about the world turning under my feet
  I couldn't care about the news
  I don't care about the wind blowing through my hair
  I don't care if I win or lose
  I don't know if it's morning or afternoon
  I don't care when the sun goes down

  I just sit around thinking how it was
  When I had a real life and a lover too
  Watching Gilligan's Island helps me to forget
  What I left behind when I lost that world

  I'm so lazy

  I don't want any help; I don't need a hand
  Nobody owes me a living
  I don't want anybody's sympathy
  I don't need anyone's forgiving
  I never thought my world could change like this
  So fast - it was overnight

  But it's not like you really had the sway
  To make me great or to make me a bum
  I'm kind of glad you left - I didn't really need you
  You needed some space - I understand
  I didn't want to you dealing with my indecision

  I'm so lazy
  The phone's ringing off the shelf
  I don't want to talk to nobody - I'm feeling
  Sorry for myself

  I'm so lazy
  Not much left to say
  I'll start getting it together tomorrow
  Seems like the perfect day

  I don't want to talk to nobody - I'm feeling
  Sorry for myself...
