lyrics

LAZY ME

When I grow up I want to be a child
Don't want to work, I just want to play
Carefree as a juvenile
Useless, and happy to be that way

I spend the day in my easy chair
Where I stare into space
In my head I replay your voice
And on the ceiling I see your face

Lazy me, lazy me
I don't know what I want to be
Lazy me, through and through
I'm only happy when I'm with you
I'm only happy when I'm with you

Don't want to have to think too much
I just want to live in ignorant bliss
Sun myself like a frog on a log
Until you break my spell with your kiss

Lazy me, lazy me
I don't know what I want to be
Lazy me, through and through
I'm only happy when I'm with you
I'm only happy when I'm with you
I'm only happy when I'm with you
I'm only happy when I'm with you

I rub my eyes and crawl out of bed
Look out the window to see what's new
I check the mirror and comb my hair
Go back to bed and dream of you
Go back to bed and dream of you

I rub my eyes and fall out of bed
Heat up a frozen snack or two
I brush my teeth and wash my face
Go back to bed and dream of you
Go back to bed and dream of you

I want to make you so proud of me
There's almost nothing I wouldn't do
I tend to be like a sloth in a tree
But I could change if I wanted to


Yes, I could get out of bed by noon
I'm not as bad as they say I am
But I'll just lay here and wait for you
Because I know you love me the way I am


Lazy me, lazy me
I don't know what'll become of me
Lazy me, through and through
I'm only happy when I'm with you
I'm only happy…

Lazy me, lazy me
I don't know what I want to be
Lazy me, through and through
I'm only happy when I'm with you
I'm only happy when I'm with you
I'm only happy when I'm with you
I'm only happy when I'm with you
I'm only happy…
I'm only happy…
I'm only happy…
I'm only happy…
