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 bills' 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 - are 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
I can't get a life if my heart's not in it
Hey hey

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
Hey hey

I lost my faith in the summer time
'Cos 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 - oh, 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
Hey hey
