| Slow it down, just for a while
|
| Drag it out for a couple of miles
|
| Don’t spend tonight out on the tiles
|
| You need to sleep, you need to dream
|
| You need to slip into places unseen
|
| Slide into space with the snow on the screen
|
| Lazy bones, that’s what they’ll say
|
| But you don’t need to make a dime today
|
| Lazy bones, that’s what they’ll think
|
| Just stand on the shore and watch ‘em sink
|
| You can float and you can fly
|
| Like branches and boats and birds in the sky
|
| Beyond the beyond, leave your troubles behind
|
| And when you awake in the middle of the night
|
| Sleep in your eyes, no one in sight
|
| Come knock on my window, I’ll leave on the
|
| Light of your life, life of your own
|
| Light on your feet, feeling alone
|
| Light up the sky, why would you fight?
|
| Under the stars that light up your night
|
| Taking your time, making your way
|
| Taking your breath, pacing your day
|
| Waving your hands from your hazy home
|
| Lazy bones, don’t be afraid
|
| Of your place in the sun, of the choices you made
|
| The game that they’re playing doesn’t have to be played
|
| They think this rock was meant to be rolled
|
| And the time that they bought was meant to be sold
|
| Come on, turn ‘em all off, turn lead into gold
|
| Lazy bones, look at you now
|
| Made in the shade and taking a bow
|
| Lazy bones, that’s what they’ll think
|
| Just stand on the shore and watch ‘em sink |
