Lazy

Every time I see a puppy on a summer day
A puppy dog at play, my heart is filled with envy
That's 'cause my heart is yearnin' to pass the time away
Like that pup, I'm fed up, know 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 awnin' they call the sky
Stretchin' and yawnin', and let the silly old world go by
I wanna peep through the deep tangled wildwood
Count in sheep 'til I sleep like a child would
And with a great big leafful of books to read when it's peaceful
Killing time, killing time, being lazy

Stop fannin' that beat, I'm tired!

Oh, lazy, I wanna be lazy
I long to be out in the sun with no work to be done
Under that awnin' that they call the sky
Stretchin' and yawnin', and let that silly world driftin' by
I wanna peep through the deep tangled wildwood
Count in sheep 'til I sleep like a child would
And with a great big leafful of books to read when it's peaceful
Killin' time, killin' time, being lazy
