Lyrics
I'LL DO ANYTHING

There's a hundred honey-do notes pasted on the fridge,
Every time I go for a beer, I see more things I didn't did,
When an old one falls to the floor,
New ones appear on the door.
My only occupation,
Is full-time recreation.
Chorus
I'll do anything as long as I don't have to do anything,
Nothing is the thing I love accomplishing,
Long as I don't have to do anything.
Years ago, I once tried to change a bulb in a lamp,
I was shocked to find out it hurts to take fifteen amps,
From that day, I shut down,
Now I'm Mr. Nowhere-To-Be-Found.
When there's work, I'd be willin',
But I'm way too busy chillin'.
Repeat chorus
Bridge
Builders build, truckers truck,
And hustlers were born to hustle,
If you need to go get a real go-getter,
I'll be right here, 'cause I ain't movin' a muscle.
Repeat regular chorus
Vamp on repeated chorus with background vocal singing "I don't wanna work."
I don't wanna work. (4 x - then fade)
