Some folks slip into a life to find out they’re already there

Some folks slip in through the night hoping there’s somebody there

What’s a dog to do? Some bones too big to chew

Ain’t no shame in staying free from what you can’t see

With your lazy eye

I got friends they go down easy some they’re always gonna fight

I got friends who like it sleazy some they’re gone all night

Why not find a girl go through the whirl and twirl

Won’t be afraid of showing me as far as she can see

With her lazy eye

I studied all of the ceilings

I wore a hole in my chair

Walked through the floor with the pacing

I know she’s out there

With her lazy eye

Sometimes think I’ll pack it in except I never got the nerve

One more night straightjacketing guess I’ll get what I deserve

Another lonely guy just watching the world go by

Not such a bad way to be as far as I can see

With my lazy eye
