I been hearing you're concerned about my happiness But all that thought you're givin' me is conscience, I guess If I were walkin' in your shoes I wouldn't worry none While you and your friends're worryin' 'bout me, I'm havin' lots of fun.
Counting flowers on the wall That don't bother me at all Playin' solitaire till dawn with a deck of fifty-one Smokin' cigarettes and watchin' Captain Kangaroo Now don't tell me I've nothing to do.
Last night I dressed in tails, pretended I was on the town As long as I can dream it's hard to slow this swinger down So please don't give a thought to me, I'm really doing fine You can always find me here and having quite a time.
Counting flowers on the wall That don't bother me at all Playin' solitaire till dawn with a deck of fifty-one Smokin' cigarettes and watchin' Captain Kangaroo Now don't tell me I've nothing to do.
It's good to see you out although I know I look a fright Anyway my eyes are not accustomed to this light And my shoes are not accustomed to this hard concrete So I must go back to my room and make my day complete.
Counting flowers on the wall That don't bother me at all Playing solitaire till dawn with a deck of fifty-one Smoking cigarettes and watching Captain Kangaroo Now don't tell me I've nothing to do.
