Mama's in the kitchen Baking up some ice-cream pie Papa's on the river fishing Fish are so lazy they won't bite I'm lying in the shade Watch a lonely cloud drift by Lazy – long hot summer's day Lazy – just pa** the time away Feel like doing nothing In this angry summer heat Just get high on the smell of honeys**le Intoxicating sweet And watch the river flow As she winds her lonely way down to the sea Lazy - long hot summer's day Lazy - just pa** the time away Can't play a lick My fingers just won't move no more My guitar plays a tune That I've never ever heard her play before It's her own sweet composition She don't seem to trust my brain no more Lazy - long hot summer's day Lazy - just pa** the time away
