The Lazy Song
The Hit Crew Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Today, I don't feel like doin' anything
I just wanna lay in my bed
Don't feel like pickin' up my phone
So, leave a message at the tone
'Cause, today I swear, I'm not doin' anything

I'm gonna kick my feet up, then stare at the fan
Turn the TV on, throw my hand in my pants
Nobody's gon' tell me, I can't
...Naw
I'll be loungin' on the couch, just chillin' in my Snuggie
Click to MTV, so they could teach me how to Dougie
'Cause, in my castle
I'm the freakin' man
Oh... Yes, I said it
...I said it
I said it 'cause, I can...

Today, I don't feel like doin' anything
I just wanna lay in my bed
Don't feel like pickin' up my phone
So, leave a message at the tone
'Cause, today I swear, I'm not doin' anything
...Nothing, at all
Woo-hoo...
...Woo-hoo
Oooh...
...Nothing, at all
Woo-hoo...
...Woo-hoo
Oooh...

Tomorrow, I'll wake up, do some P90X
Meet a really nice girl, have some really nice sex
And she's gonna scream out "this is great"
(Oh my God, this is great) ...Yeah
I might mess around & get my College degree
I bet, my old man will be so proud of me
But sorry Pops, you'll just have to wait
Oh... Yes, I said it
...I said it
I said it 'Cause, I can

Today, I don't feel like doin' anything
I just wanna lay in my bed
Don't feel like pickin' up my phone
So, leave a message at the tone
'Cause, today I swear, I'm not doin' anything

No, I...
Ain't gonna comb my hair
'Cause, I ain't goin' anywhere
No-no, No-no, No, No-no, No-no, Oh
I'll just strut in my birthday suit
And let everything, hang loose
Yeah-yeah, Yeah-yeah, Yeah, Yeah-yeah, Yeah-yeah, Yeah...

Today, I don't feel like doin' anything
I just wanna lay in my bed
Don't feel like pickin' up my phone
So, leave a message at the tone
'Cause, today I swear, I'm not doin' anything
...Nothing, at all
Woo-hoo...
...Woo-hoo
Oooh...
...Nothing, at all
Woo-hoo...
...Woo-hoo




Oooh...
...Nothing at all
