I can hear that you're concerned about my happiness
But all the thoughts you're giving me is conscience i guess
If I were walking in your shoes, I wouldn't worry now
But you and your friends are worried 'bout me, i'm having lots of fun
Countin' flowers on the wall
That don't bother me at all
Playin' solitaire 'til dawn with a deck of 51
Smokin' cigarettes and watchin' Captain Kangaroo
Now don't tell me i've nothin' to do
Last night I dressed in tails pretending 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 doing fine
You can always find me here i'm having quite a time
Countin' flowers on the wall
That don't bother me at all
Playin' solitaire 'til dawn with a deck of 51
Smokin' cigarettes and watchin' Captain Kangaroo
Now 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
Countin' flowers on the wall
That don't bother me at all
Playin' solitaire 'til dawn with a deck of 51
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
