Lord Baldwin - Mr. Lazy Bones Lyrics

If I have to, I guess I can do it
But, I'm still gonna wait for a moment to see
Whether someone else is gonna step in and
End up doing
That whatever that was intended for me
I'm not feeling the slightest of guilt
Schluffing things off like your neighborhood jerk
Just as long as I can continue
Avoiding having to do
What seems like too much work
Oh, notwithstanding
The proverbial sticks and stones
They say what they will
But I'm still taking it easy
I'm
Mr. lazy bones
There they are, running around to get their things done
Admittedly there's a lot going on
But why would they like to include me for their own sakes
To expect I'd just follow along
I'm going down that path of least resistance
I'm ignoring any guilty conscience call
And I'm looking to have a little more
Time to myself
And hopefully end up doing
Nothing at all
I see them talking over there
With their less-than subtle whispers and groans
But I ain't listening to what any of them have to say
I'm Mr. lazy bones
I hold no malice for anyone or anything
As long as they just leave me alone
I'm saving myself, my strength and get-up-and-go
So please
Don't pull me out and away from my home
Yeah
I'm easing myself back into the shadows
To see what'll happen
When time slips away
There's always that someone who gets tired of waiting
And will step up to do the work
To save the day
And I know I lack a sense of decorum
Most folks are feeling that it's really not fair
They're only gonna end up
Frustrating themselves
Because, well
I really don't care
Oh, I got better things to do with my life
Than being taken out of my comfort zones
So, maybe later if I'm feeling it
But otherwise, come on
I'm Mr. lazy bones
Oh, I see them talking over there to themselves
In their angry and frustrated tones
But I can't hear em anymore
Cause I'm walking the other way
I'm Mr. Lazy bones
