The Importance Of Being Idle
I sold my soul for the second time
Cause the man, he don't pay me
I begged my landlord for some more time
He said son, the bills are waiting
My best friend called me the other night
He say man, are you crazy
My girlfriend told me to get a life
She said boy, you lazy
But I don't mind
As long as there's a bed beneath the stars that shine
I'll be fine, if you give me a minute, a man's got a limit
I can't get a life if my heart's not in it
I lost my faith in the summer time
Cause it don't stop raining
The sky all day is as black as night
But I'm not complaining
I begged my doctor for one more line
He said son, words fail me
It ain't your place to be killing time
But I guess I'm just lazy
But I don't mind
As long as there's a bed beneath the stars that shine
I'll be fine, if you give me a minute, a man's got a limit
I can't get a life if my heart's not in it
