Lyrics for Lazy

Lazy I want to be lazy I long 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 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
