The importance of being idle

I sold my soul for the second time
'Cause the man, don't paid me
I begged my landlord for some more time
He said: Son, the bills are 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're 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
I can't get a life if my 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 heart's not in it

I lost my faith in the summer time
'Cause it don't stop raining
The sky all day is as black as night
But I'm not complaining

I begged my doctor for one more line
He said: Son, words fail me
It ain't no place to be killing time
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 heart's not in it
