Lazy Confessions
The Moldy Peaches Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lazy confessions
Crazy intentions
Scratching unwilling
Sports cars are thrilling
I like potatoes
I don't like tomatoes
I'm goin' fishin
Cos' I'm on a mission

I wanna live for today
I wanna roll in the hay
But I'm floating away
I got nothing to say

It makes me slappy
To walk like your pappy
I need to improvise
Just lookin' at the pies
Boohoo I'm dying
Ravenous sighing
I think you're pretty
My shrink says I'm witty

I wanna live for today
I wanna roll in the hay
But I'm floating away
I got nothing to say

But I'm floating away
I got nothing to say

Overall Meaning

The Moldy Peaches song "Lazy Confessions" is a quirky and whimsical tune that appears to be a collection of random thoughts and observations. The lyrics meander from topic to topic, touching on everything from cars to fishing to food preferences. The singer seems to be struggling with feelings of aimlessness and apathy, and writes about wanting to live in the moment and enjoy life, but feeling like they are constantly "floating away" and unable to connect with anything.


Despite its seemingly disjointed nature, the song is actually quite revealing about the singer's inner world. The repeated refrain of "I wanna live for today, I wanna roll in the hay, but I'm floating away, I got nothing to say" suggests a sense of ennui and disconnection from the world around them. The final line in particular, "I got nothing to say," seems to speak to the singer's frustration with their inability to express themselves or connect with others.
