Saturday Afternoon

Rough draft of a new song, which I just now wrote (sorry I don't know how to record and post the melody)

I’m feelin good from being so bad
Slept till noon
Now I’m drinking beer at 3pm
Smoking cigarettes
And wasting time
Something about being lazy
That makes you feel so fine

Saturday afternoon
Making lots of plans on cleanin
Just not anytime soon
Sweet Saturday afternoon
Gonna make this time all mine
And hum a lazy tune

Doo doo doo dooooo Doot doo doo doo doo
Doot doo doo dooooo Dootn doot doo dooooo

I plan my chores, Got to do my part
When the beer buzz wakes me up,
Likely after dark
Till then, I’m lounging…writing songs
Every now and then it’s right
To do everything wrong

Like Saturday afternoon
Making lots of plans on doing
Whatever need be done
Sweet Saturday afternoon
Letting time trickle past reckless
Humming nonsense at the sun

Doo doo doo dooooo Doot doo doo doo doo
Doot doo doo dooooo Dootn doot doo dooooo


Watchin tv, reading books, in crumpled pajamas
Later I’ll find some motivation
But not until I wanna
I earned this time in 50 hours for the man
so I aint gonna lift
a single working hand

Saturday afternoon
I map out all the efforts
It just aint time to start
Not this Saturday afternoon
Singing bout the sweet reward
To a week a’playin my part.

Doo doo doo dooooo Doot doo doo doo doo
Doot doo doo dooooo Dootn doot doo dooooo


Needs a lot of work, and is pretty simple, but I most songs I attempt to write are just meant to be simple and enjoyable. Plus, of course, song writing is a very new thing to me.
Hopefully I will refine it and record it. I'll probably start a new blog for songs. I've written a few lately. (I think you all will like Dick & Jane especially)
