why get up
Why get up, why get up  How can I get up, why should I get up  This whole world's gone crazy  Think I've seen enough  I'm gonna sleep forever why get up  Phone keeps ringing right off the hook  Some bill collector, I know what cooks  Think I'll stay in bed, dream all day  World outside bugs me anyway  When I get things going, the going gets rough  So I ask myself why get up  Chorus  Went to the doctor, he said lose some weight  If you don't do it quick, we'll have to operate  I talked to my lawyer, he said case is closed  That woman got it all even the garden hose  Staring at the ceiling thinking just my luck  Better roll back over why get up  Chorus  Well I can't quit drinking, I'm nervous all the time  When I wake up, it's like a ton lead on my mind  What was it, I said to that girl last night  She really got upset, I best stay out of sight  I remember a gun and calling somebody's bluff  I better duck under the cover why get up  Chorus  Chorus
