You Can't Be Lazy with Love

Jobs
I had a job once selling flowers and gifts
over a phone
1-800-flowers
funny place
use to freeze to death
at the bus stop
you know it's cold
when it skips your flesh
and goes right to the bone
th3e place was really a crummy deal too
you'd get prizes for the most you sold
and on the final day of the hoilday
which ever one
you get calls
lots and lots of calls
dead flowers they'd say
I remember on girl
got a guy who said
his girlfriend's flowers went to his wife
and his wife's flowers went to his girlfriend
Me I just go to the store
the old fashion way
can't be lazy with Love
only Marriage I guess
