Lazy had the power to chill them to the bone
I wished and longed he’d take one of his songs
And turn them all to stone
One day while he was working he chanced to catch her eye
He turned and stared, she laughed and brushed her hair
He let the chance go by
Never stood a chance with herds of macho men around
Didn't have a prayer with girls with Snoopy stuffed and sat upon the bed
They laughed, they acted dumb
She smiled and said, "Hey, it's remarkable
But there's someone in this life for everyone
Yes there's someone in this life for everyone"
Here he comes a-walking his face fixed to the ground
And in his mind rehearsing all the lines
Of how love brought him down
Then Lazy started drinking, his fate's not in his hands
He drank all day began to waste away
But she had other plans
Never stood a chance with herds of macho men around
Didn't have a prayer with girls with Snoopy stuffed and sat upon the bed
They laughed, they acted dumb
She smiled and said, "Hey, it's remarkable
But there's someone in this life for everyone
Yes there's someone in this life for everyone"
Came the fateful evening she dressed to beat the band
And in her mind rehearsing all the lines
To make him understand
"Lazy what's your problem? You shouldn't think so small
'cause I can see that you were made for me
And you can have it all"
Never stood a chance with herds of macho men around
Didn't have a prayer with girls with Snoopy stuffed and sat upon the bed
They laughed, they acted dumb
She smiled and said, "Hey, it's remarkable
But there's someone in this life for everyone
Yes there's someone in this life for everyone"
