The people were running |
|
The place was on fire |
|
The smoke was a-growing |
|
And the flames were getting higher |
|
The fire chief was shouting |
|
As he knocked down my door |
|
He said you better move your butt boy |
|
Or you'll knock on heaven's door |
|
I'm so laid back, I'm laid out |
|
I'm so caved in and spaced out |
|
I'm wired to the teeth |
|
I'm fused to the floor |
|
So baby don't you bug me no more |
|
Don't you bug me no more |
|
The rent needing paying |
|
The insurance was due |
|
The roof needing fixing |
|
And the rain was coming through |
|
But the forecast is sunny |
|
So I'll stay here on my back |
|
Tomorrow is another day |
|
It's cozy in the sack |
|
I'm so laid back, I'm laid out |
|
I'm so caved in and spaced out |
|
I'm wired to the teeth |
|
I'm fused to the floor |
|
So baby don't you bug me no more |
|
Don't you bug me no more |
|
There were times when you wanted to be number one |
|
And the glamour and the glitter were turning him on |
|
But he realized that it was better to be number two (ooh) |
|
My luxury is living |
|
'Cause I can't afford to die |
|
I'm a diletantic mother |
|
With a twinkle in my eye |
|
Let the others do the running |
|
I'm content to take a cut |
|
Percentages are burning |
|
And I'm happy in my rut |
|
I'm so laid back, I'm laid out |
|
I'm so caved in and spaced out |
|
I'm wired to the teeth |
|
I'm fused to the floor |
|
So baby don't you bug me no more |
|
Don't you bug me no more |
|
No more, no more, no more, [etc.] |
