Lyrics
This is a little story about a lazy old man
This story focuses on an elderly man who lacks motivation.
It's been years and years
He has been in this state for a prolonged period.
And years gone by without a solid plan
He has been living without a clear or definite plan.
Digging deep for motivation, why it seems so hard to find
He struggles to find the inspiration or drive to change.
He's been living like this for, oh, so long
His life has been entrenched in this way for an extensive time.
This way of life is stuck in his mind
His mindset is firmly stuck in this lifestyle.
A good kick in the ass is what he needs
He requires a strong motivation or push to change.
No one hears his silent pleas
His pleas for help go unheard.
Although people around him would tend to agree
People acknowledge his situation but don't act upon it.
A life of living like this is a bad disease
Living like this is compared to a harmful ailment.
A will for change is a thought desired
He desires the willpower to change his circumstances.
To achieve his goals, to take him higher
He wishes to achieve his goals and elevate himself.
In his thoughts he seems to care
He seems to care in his thoughts but struggles to act.
But laziness lingers in the air
His laziness is still dominant.
A fresh breath not polluted with this disease
He longs for a fresh start, free from this negative pattern.
I can hear him screaming saying pleas, please, please
His desperation for change is evident.
Help me now, take me by the hand
He pleads for assistance to break free from his rut.
This rut I'm in, makes me so bland
His current situation has made his life dull and uninteresting.
A good kick in the ass is what he needs
Similar to line 9, he needs a strong push to change.
No one hears his silent pleas
His pleas remain unheard despite his need for help.
Although people around him would tend to agree
People recognize his situation but don't take action.
A life of living like this is a bad disease
Reiteration of how his lifestyle is like a harmful disease.
It's a bad disease, it's a bad disease, it's a bad disease
Emphasis on the detrimental nature of his condition.
So used to sitting, sitting on the couch
He's grown accustomed to a sedentary lifestyle.
Feeling like a fucking, goddamn slouch
He feels useless and unproductive.
A goddamn slouch
Reinforcement of his feeling of being unproductive.
So used to sitting on the couch
Repetition of his sedentary lifestyle and feelings of uselessness.
Feeling like a fucking, goddamn slouch
Reiteration of feeling utterly unproductive and stagnant.
Will he see the reality, reality?
Questioning whether he will face the harsh truth of his reality.
