Lyrics

Well I've got no motivation today
Just been sitting around wasting my life away
If I was being real and true enough to say
I don't want to go outside
Well I know I’ve got a lawn to mow
but I'd rather sit and watch my TV show
Eat a another frozen burrito
And I’ve got no place to go or to be
Well and that's just fine
Just fine with me

Watching the sunshine from indoors
Pacing around on the kitchen floor
Sweatpants and a baseball game
Just gettin by to get along
Watching the clock tick in front of my eyes
Low down just counting the flies
Buzzing round my head while I'm trying to write a song
Another day off from the world
And that's whats going on

One time i had a girlfriend
She thought of me as a means to an end
Take me places and do things i didn't like to do
No She didn't wanna lay around
She wanna get up and go to the market downtown
And I just wanted to stay in and enjoy myself
All by myself

Watching the sunshine from indoors
Pacing around on the kitchen floor
Sweatpants and a baseball game
Just gettin by to get along
Watching the clock tick in front of my eyes
Low down just counting the flies
Buzzing’ round my head while I'm trying to write a song
Another day off from the world
And that's whats going on

That’s what’s going on

Well and I’m gonna be working
My whole life to provide
And I’m gonna find an activity
That’ll let me be in the happy place I wanna be

Watching the sunshine from indoors
Pacing around on the kitchen floor
Sweatpants and a baseball game
Just gettin by to get along
Watching the clock tick in front of my eyes
Low down just counting the flies
Buzzing round my head while I'm trying to write a song
Another day off from the world
And that's whats going on
