The Importance of Being Idle

I sold my soul for the second time

Cos the land it don't pay me

I begged my landlord for some more time

He said son the bills waiting

My best friend called me the other night

He said man are you crazy?

My girlfriend told me to get a life

She said boy are 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 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 summertime

Cos 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 whats family?

It aint no place to be killin' time

I guess I'm just lazy

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
