The Importance Of Being Idle (Live at the Royal Albert Hall)

Lyrics

[Intro] (Two) One, two, three, four [Verse 1] I sold my soul for the second time 'Cause the man, he don't pay me I begged my landlord for some more time And 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 lazy" [Chorus] I don't mind As long as there's a bed beneath the stars that shine I'll be fine Forgive me a minute, a man's got a limit I can't get a life if my heart's not in it, yeah-yeah [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] But I don't mind As long as there's a bed beneath the stars that shine I'll be fine Forgive me a minute, aman's got a limit I can't get a life if my heart's not in it, yeah-yeah [Verse 2] I lost my faith in the summertime '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 Well, I guess I'm just lazy [Chorus] I don't mind As long as there's a bed beneath the stars that shine Well, I'll be fine Forgive me a minute, a man's got a limit I can't get a life if my heart's not in it, yeah-yeah [Outro] Thank you
