I been hearin' your concern about my happiness
|
But all that thought you've given me, is conscience I guess
|
If I were walkin' in your shoes, I wouldn't worry none
|
While you and your friends are worryin' 'bout me,
|
I'm havin' lots of fun
|
|
Chorus:
|
Countin' flowers on the wall, that don't bother me at all
|
Playin' solitaire 'til dawn, with a deck of fifty-one
|
Smokin' cigarettes and watchin' Captain Kangaroo
|
Now don't tell me
|
I've nothin' to do
|
Don't tell me
|
I've nothin' 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 doin' fine
|
You can always find me here and havin' quite a time
|
|
Chorus:
|
Countin' flowers on the wall, that don't bother me at all
|
Playin' solitaire 'til dawn, with a deck of fifty-one
|
Smokin' cigarettes and watchin' Captain Kangaroo
|
Now don't tell me
|
I've nothin' to do
|
Don't tell me
|
I've nothin' to do
|

It's 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
|
|
Chorus:
|
Countin' flowers on the wall, that don't bother me at all
|
Playin' solitaire 'til dawn, with a deck of fifty-one
|
Smokin' cigarettes and watchin' Captain Kangaroo
|
Now don't tell me
|
I've nothin' to do
|
Don't tell me
|
I've nothin' to do
|
Don't tell me
|
I've nothin' to do...
