The Statler Brothers - Flowers On The Wall lyrics

rate me

I've been hearin' you're concerned about my happiness

But all that thought you're givin' me is conscience I guess

If I were walkin' in your shoes I wouldn't worry none

While you and your friends're worryin' bout me I'm havin' lots of fun

Chorus:

Countin' flowers on the wall that don't bother me at all

Playin' solitare till dawn with a deck of fifty one

Smokin' cigarettes and watchin' Captain Kangaroo

Now don't tell me I've nothing to do

Last night I dressed in tails pretended 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 doin' fine

You can always find me here and havin' quite a time

Chorus

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

Chorus

Don't tell me I've nothing to do
