lyrics

I'm so good at doing nothing

Faced with the task of picking the mounds of clutter off my floor
I manage to get comfortable and the mess remains ignored
Let's sit and do nothing for hours at a time and neglect our obligations
I'm content if you're content just basking in procrastination
-
I'll do anything
except what I'm supposed to do
I could waste a day
like it's my job, yeah
between every nap and every TV rerun
I've given up before I've even begun
I'm not the type of dude that you should count on
I will never get anything done
-
There's a few things that I care about and they get all my time
As far as dreaming and scheming and partying go, well, I am in my prime
And though I admit that my careless ways will catch up with me someday
At least I'm not fooling myself along the way

And I'll stay up all night
coming up with all kinds of excuses
to convince myself my laziness is justified
and as the hours melt away, my eyes are getting heavy
It's probably best if I just fall asleep (As the hours are flushing, I'm accomplishing nothing, but tomorrow is another day)
