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,
   Im 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
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

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
