Lazy days have got me putting off what I cannot hide
I'll do tomorrow what I promised just give me time to move
Off this burly, old couch
I feel tied down and I can't remember a time when I said to you

Take the children, take the dog
Call my mother when you are through
The great provider that you are
I know that you need to rest your head
On this burly, old couch
You should lie down, relax, and let me take full control for you

You may not ask me if I'm ready to go
You may not ask me if I forgot
I know what I said, I will do it tonight
Just give me time

Lazy days have got me putting off what I cannot see
I wrote it down, made a list
And posted it plainly there for you to see

But this burly, old couch
Keeps me tied down
And I can't remember a time when I did what I should do
But this burly old couch
Keeps me tied down
And I can't remember a time when I did what I should do
