Lyrics

Spent the day in bed
very happy I did, yes
I spent the day in bed
As the workers stay enslaved
I spent the day in bed
I'm not my type, but
I love my bed

And I recommend that you
STOP WATCHING THE NEWS!
because the news contrives to frighten you
to make you feel small and alone
to make you feel that your mind isn't your own

I spent the day in bed
it's a consolation when all my dreams
are perfectly legal
in sheets for which I paid
I am now laid

and I recommend
to all of my friends that they
STOP WATCHING THE NEWS!
because the news contrives to frighten you
to make you feel small and alone
to make you feel that your mind isn't your own

"Time, do as I wish
time, do as I wish
time, do as I wish
time, do as I wish ..."

Spent the day in bed
you can please yourself, but
I spent the day in bed
pillows like pillars
life ends in death
so there's nothing wrong with being good to yourself
be good to yourself for once!

No bus, no boss, no rain, no train
no bus, no boss, no rain, no train
no bus, no boss, no rain, no train
no emasculation
no castration
no highway, freeway, motorway
no bus, no boss, no rain, no train.
