Caveat: m’so lazy I almos’ stopppppㅌㅌ

How freakin appropriate, given my feelings this weekend.

What I’m listening to right now.

X-Press (feat. David Byrne), “Lazy.” Actually, I wasn’t so lazy, listening to it. I went on a jog in the park, around the lake. The extended version is a better track, but the shorter version has the cool video, above.

pictureHere’s the lyrics.

I’m lazy when I’m lovin and I’m lazy when I play
I’m lazy with my girlfriend a thousand times a day
I’m lazy when I’m speaking, I’m lazy when I walk
I’m lazy when I’m dancing and I’m lazy when I talk

Open up my mouth, air comes rushing out (sigh)
Nothing, doing nada, never, how d’you like me now?
Wouldn’t it be mad, wouldn’t it be fine
Lazy, lucky lady, dancing, loving all the time

Ohhhhh I’m wicked and I’m lzy
Ohhhhh Don’t you want to save me?

Some folks they got money and some folks love to sweep
Some folks make decisions and some folks clean the streets
Now imagine what it feels like, imagine how it sounds
Imagine life was perfect and everything works out

No tears are falling from my eyes
I’m keeping all the pain inside
Now don’t you want to live with me
I’m lazy as a man can be

Ohhhhh I’m wicked and I’m lazy
Ohhhhh Don’t you want to save me?

Ooh-hoo

Imagine there’s a girlfriend, imagine there’s a job
Imagine there’s an answer, imagine there’s a God
Imagine I’m a devil, imagine I’m a saint
Lazy money, lazy, sexy, lazy outer space

No tears are falling from my eyes
I’m keeping all the pain inside
Now don’t you want to live with me
I’m lazy as a man can be

(Note this paragraph is for the extended version)

Ohhhhh I’m wicked and I’m lazy
Ohhhhh Don’t you want to save me?
Lazy when I work, lazy on the bed
Screaming all you like but it only fades away
I’m lazy when I’m praying, lazy on the job
Got a lazy mind, lazy eye, lazy lazy father

Hard man, hard life
Hard keeping it all inside
Good times, good God
m’so lazy I almos’ stopppppTTT

Ohhhhh I’m wicked and I’m lazy
Ohhhhh Don’t you want to save me?
Ohhhhh I’m wicked and I’m lazy
Ohhhhh Don’t you want to save me?
