The Importance of Being Idle lyrics

I sold my soul for the second time

'Cos the man, he don't pay me

I begged my landlord for some more time

He said “Son, the bill's waiting”

My best friend called me the other night

He said “Man, are you crazy?”

My girlfriend told me to get a life

She said “boy, you lazy”

But I don't mind

As long as there's a bed beneath the stars that shine

I'll be fine

If you give me a minute

A man's got a limit

You can't get a life if your heart's not in it

I don't mind

As long as there's a bed beneath the stars that shine

I'll be fine

If you give me a minute

A man's got a limit

I can't get a life if my hearts' not in it

I lost my faith in the summertime

'Cos it don't stop raining

The sky all day's as black as night

But I love complaining

I begged my doctor for one more line

He said “Son, words fail me”

It ain't no place to be killing time

But I guess I'm just lazy

I don't mind

As long as there's a bed beneath the stars that shine

I'll be fine

If you give me a minute

A man's got a limit

I can't get a life if my hearts' not in it
