Lyrics
Life is easy in my easy chair
I like to sit there without a care
It?s the perfect way to get away
Life is easy in my easy chair
This easy chair can be anywhere
I can even sit there in my underwear
No need to impress or put on any airs
My problems seem to disappear
And the meaning of life becomes more clear
There?s really nothing to compare
Life is easy in my easy chair?
Sometimes I think that doin? nothing
Is more important than doin? something
Ideas are born when I?m sittin? around
I see things I wouldn?t usually see
I hear things I wouldn?t usually hear
I think I might become enlightened in my easy chair
Life is easy in my easy chair?
