The Importance Of Being Idle Lyrics/Paroles
The Importance Of Being Idle Single
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, 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 mans got a limit
You cant get a life if your hearts’ not in it
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 mans got a limit
I cant get a life if my hearts’ not in it
I lost my faith in the summertime
Cos it don’t stop raining
The sky all day’s as black as night
But I love complaining
I begged my doctor for one more line
He said "Son, words fail me"
It ain’t no place to be killing time
But 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 mans got a limit
I cant get a life if my hearts’ not in it
Will you pass me down the wine?
It's getting near that time
What you got tomorrow?
Only pain and sorrow
Will you dance for me tonight
I promise I won't bite
Let's go see the sun burst
Wait till i've gone numb first
And in the morning come to us
And if the evening showers us
Sing to us
Will you break it down for me?
Cos what will be will be
I can hear the thunder
Gonna stop the hunger
And in the morning come to us
And if the evening showers us
Sing to us
To all my sisters; yeah you're looking pretty fine
And to all my brothers; bet you feeling kinda high
And to all the mothers; well come on now don't be shy
And to all the fathers; who are sick and fucking tired
so let's hear it
for the quiet ones
let's all hear it
be as bright as sun
when it's dark and you're overcome
listen now
let's all hear it
for the quiet one
so let's hear it
for the quiet ones
can't get near it
till we're bright as sun
when it's dark and we're overcome
listen now
let's all hear it
for the quiet one
