I'd work very hard
But I'm lazy
I can't take the pressure and it's starting to show
In my heart
You know how it pains me
A life of leisure is no life you know

Waking up and getting up has never been easy
Oh I think you should know
Waking up and getting up has never been easy
Oh I think you should know
Oh I think you should go
Make a cup of tea
And put a record on

I'd work very hard
But I'm lazy
I've got a lot of songs but they're all in my head
I'll get a guitar
And a lover who pays me
If I can't be a star I won't get out of bed

Waking up and getting up has never been easy
Oh I think you should know
Waking up and getting up has never been easy
Oh I think you should know
Oh I think you should go
Make a cup of tea
And put a record on
