Lyrics
Lazy Guy
Here?s a tale about a lazy guy
Who?s not too different from you and I
Always thinking of the right things to do
Still somehow he never follows through
Did we ever get into his head?
Did he even hear what we said?
Didn?t want to go to work or go to school
All he wanted was to play the fool
So why should he try
To be right in their eyes?
Then one day he met the perfect gal
Who turned out to be his only pal
Pushing him to do the best he can
Knowing he would always be her man
So now he will try
To be right in her eyes
And as she holds his hand
He understands
There ain?t nothin? better than being her man
He was wrong, wronged for so long
And as she kissed his lips
She drove him wild
That?s when he pulled out a quarter
Then he dialed his Mama
Oh Mama I?m in love
Lazy guy knew what had to be done
Feeling that his life had just begun
Saved some money and then bought a home
Knowing he would never be alone
So now lazy guy
Will be alright in his life
Lyrics: M. L. Barbuti
