I can see you're young and pretty
I know it woulb be so easy
Any way dark lady I feel lazy
Those afternoons are confused
I don't think that you really choose
There's even one more reason to feel lazy
While you go away
While you go away
While you go away
While you go away
I could die but I could lie
I can't deal with what's in your mind
Anyway, I'm tired and I feel lazy
You know we're both lost in a maze
You're miserable, I'm so dazed
Don't you think you should feel
Suddenly lazy
lazy
lazy
While you go away
While you go away
While you go away
While you go away
Lazy, la, la, la, lazy
Lazy, la, la, la, lazy
Lazy, la, la, la, lazy
While you go away
While you go away
While you go awayEv'ry 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 tho' it's wrong to be
I long to be

[chorus:]
Lazy
I want to be lazy
I want 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 want to peep
Through the 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
While I'm
Killing time
Being lazy

[2nd verse:]
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 beingHere they come with their make-up on
as lovely as the clouds, come and see them,
Boys and girls and their mums and their words
and their romances and jobs and their sons,
Barking mad kids, lonely dads
who drug it up to give it some meaning,
From the raves to the council estates
they're reminding us there's things to be done.
But you and me, all we want to be is lazy,
you and me, so lazy...
Here they come gone 7am
getting satellite and Sky getting cable,
Bills and Bens and their mums and their friends
who just really, really want to be loved,
Uncle Teds and their legendary vests
helping out around the disabled,
From the flats and the maisonettes
they're reminding us there's things to be done.
But you and me, all we want to be is lazy,
you and me, so lazy...
It's you and me, it's you and me, you and me...
