Smoking cigarettes and watching Captain Kangaroo.

I keep hearing you're concerned about my trips to The Dish
All that thought you're giving me is really kinda the pits...
If I were walking in your shoes, I wouldn't fret a bit..
While you/your friends worry 'bout me, I smoke, laugh, drink and sit..

Counting flowers on the wall,
That don't bother me at all.
Playing Solitaire till dawn,
With a deck of fifty-one.
Smoking cigarettes and watching Captain Kangaroo.
Now, don't tell me I've nothing to do.

Last night I dressed in jeans and t-shirt, I was on the town.
As long as I can walk, you'll never slow this codger down.
So please don't give a thought to me, I'm really doing well.
You can usually find me there, right around the dinner bell.

Counting flowers on the wall,
That don't bother me at all.
Playing Solitaire till dawn,
With a deck of fifty-one.
Smoking cigarettes and watching Captain Kangaroo.
Now, don't tell me I've nothing to do.

Well, it's good to see you, you must know, and I know I look a sight..
Anyway it’s my selection, my direction, and also simply my right..
I hurt no one, mean no harm, if I talk about you I’m discrete.
So I must go back to my abode and make my day complete.

Counting flowers on the wall,
That don't bother me at all.
Playing Solitaire till dawn,
With a deck of fifty-one.
Smoking cigarettes and watching Captain Kangaroo.

Now, counting flowers on the wall,
That don't bother me at all.
Playing Solitaire till dawn,
With a deck of fifty-one.
Smoking cigarettes and watching Captain Kangaroo.
Now, don't tell me I've nothing to do.

Don't tell me I've nothing to do.
