I keep hearing you're concerned about my happiness All that thought you're giving me is conscience, I guess If I were walking in your shoes, I wouldn't worry none While you and your friends are worrying 'bout me, I'm having lots of fun Counting flowers on the wall, that don't bother me at all Playing solitare '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 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 Counting flowers on the wall, that don't bother me at all Playing solitare 'till dawn with a deck of fifty-one Smoking cigarettes and watching Captain Kangaroo Now don't tell me I've nothing to do It's god 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 Counting flowers on the wall, that don't bother me at all Playing solitare 'till dawn with a deck of fifty-one Smoking cigarettes and watching Captain Kangaroo Now don't tell me I've nothing to do Now don't tell me I've nothing to do
