Lyrics

Lazy Lies

[Verse 1]

Sick and tired, and you wanna see a change

But you don't wanna change for me

Be so kind to explain what's on your mind

You're the riddle of the century

I'm afraid your words are lying in the shade

On a hammock, hanging from my tree

[Chorus]

Lazy lies today (Lazy lies today)

Lazy lies today (Lazy lies today)

Tomorrow you might change

But it's lazy lies today (Lazy lies today)

Lazy lies today (Lazy lies today)

Tomorrow you might change

But it's lazy lies today

[Verse 2]

Please explain what you think there is to gain

When you treat me like a magazine

Just a picture, I'm a temporary fixture

Like a moment in your make-believe

My prediction, strange as fiction

I'll get over this addiction, too

[Chorus]

Lazy lies today (Lazy lies today)

Lazy lies today (Lazy lies today)

Tomorrow you might change

But it's lazy lies today (Lazy lies today)

Lazy lies today (Lazy lies today)

Tomorrow you might change

But it's lazy lies today

[Instrumental]

[Outro]

(Lazy lies today, lazy lies today, lazy lies today)

(Lazy lies today, lazy lies today, lazy lies today)
