The Way The Lazy Do

Lying on your back
In the night so black
Dreaming of sweet love
Just beneath above
There's a light on in the house
See the bug see the mouse
Hear em fight, hear em shout
Hit the lights and go out
It's just that time of the year
that brings them here
Yesterday the day got colder
Passed away got one day older
Now it seems that everything is new
Then today a rock rolled over
Came to life to kill the clover
Left to way the way the lazy do
In the dirt of the flood
There's a stick in the mud
But in the heat of the sun
It is cool to be one
It's just that time of the year
So stick right here
Yesterday the day got colder
Passed away got one day older
Now it seems that everything is new
Then today a rock rolled over
Came to life to kill the clover
Left to lay the way the lazy do
May your thoughts be kind
May your knots unwind
May your dogs drink wine
May your days kill time
And may your fears go blind
As your regret rewinds
A little peace of mind
May you wake to find
It's just that time of the year
That holds you dear
