I like to go out every now and then
I can't wait to do it again
But I haven't had the time, lately
I like to step out every once in a while
I kind of like to do it in style
I haven't had the time, lately
Lately I've been staying at home (Staying at home, staying at home)
Working the crosswords turn off the phone (turn off the phone, turn off the phone)
And I dream I'm on vacation, cause I like the way that sounds
It's the perfect occupation for me
I don't mind being by myself if there's no one else around
It's the last good time, in town
Well I could stand up straight, get a real job
Stay out late with the same old mob
But it hasn't crossed my mind, lately
Put on a suit, work downtown
Moon come up and the sun go down,
No I haven't had the time, lately
Lately I've been staying at home (Staying at home, staying at home)
Closing the curtains, play jazz on trombone (Jazz on trombone, jazz on trombone)
And I dream I'm on vacation, Though you won't see me around
It's a perfect situation, for me
I don't mind being by myself cause I know you'll come on down
It's the last good time, in town
Lately I've been staying at home (Staying at home, staying at home)
Working the crosswords turn off the phone (turn off the phone, turn off the phone)
And I dream I'm on vacation, cause I like the way that sounds
It's the perfect occupation for me
I don't mind being by myself if if you don't see me around
It's the last good time, in town
