I keep hearin youre concerned
about my happiness
But all that thought youre givin me is
conscience, I guess
If I were walkin in your shoes,
I wouldnt worry none
While you n your friends are worryin about me,
Im havin lots of fun

Countin flowers on the wall
That dont bother me at all
Playin Solitaire til dawn
With a deck of fifty-one

Smokin cigarettes and watchin Captain Kangaroo
Now dont tell me … Ive nothin to do

Last night I dressed in tails,
pretended I was on the town
As long as I can dream,
its hard to slow this swinger down
So please dont give a thought to me,
Im really doin fine
You can always find me here,
and havin quite a time

Countin flowers on the wall
That dont bother me at all
Playin Solitaire til dawn
With a deck of fifty-one

Smokin cigarettes and watchin Captain Kangaroo
Now dont tell me … Ive nothin to do

Its good to see you, I must go
I know I look a fright
Anyways, 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

Countin flowers on the wall
That dont bother me at all
Playin Solitaire til dawn
With a deck of fifty-one

Smokin cigarettes and watchin Captain Kangaroo
Now dont tell me … Ive nothin to do

Dont tell me … Ive nothin to do
