Lazy Lyrics


(1st verse:)
Ev'ry time
I see a puppy upon a summer's day
A puppy dog at play
My heart is filled with envy
That's because
My heart is yearning to pass the time away
Like that pup
'cause I'm all fed up
And tho' it's wrong to be
I long to be(chorus:)
Lazy
I want to be lazy
I want to be out in the sun
With no work to be done
Under that awning
They call the sky
Stretching and yawning

And let the world go drifting byI want to peep
Through the deep
Tangled wildwood
Counting sheep
'til I sleep
Like a child wouldWith a great big valise full
Of books to read where it's peaceful
While i'm
Killing time
Being lazy
(2nd verse:)
Life is short
And getting shorter with each day that goes by
And how the time does fly
Before you know, it's over
That's why i'm
In such a hurry to pack my things and fly
To a spot
Where it's nice and hot
And hear the birdies sing
While I'm being

Irving Berlin (11 May 1888 – 22 September 1989), born Israel Isidore Baline, in Tyumen, Russia (according to other sources possibly Mogilev, now Belarus), was an American composer and lyricist. He was one of the most prodigious and famous American songwriters in history. Berlin, who was Jewish, was one of the few Tin Pan Alley/Broadway songwriters who wrote both lyrics and music for his songs. Although he never learned to read music beyond a rudimentary level, he composed over 3,000 songs.
