I keep hearin youre concerned about my happiness
But all that thought youre givin me is conscience I guess
If I was walkin in your shoes, I wouldnt worry none
While you n your friends are worried about me Im havin lots of fun
CHORUS
Countin flowers on the wall
That dont bother me at all
Playin solitaire till 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
CHORUS
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
CHORUS
Dont tell me Ive nothin to do
