I like to go out every now and then
I can't wait to do it again
But I haven't had the time, lately.

I like to step out every once in a while
I kind of like to do it in style
I haven't had the time, lately.

Lately I've been stayin' at home
(Stayin' at home, stayin' at home)
Workin' the crosswords, turn off the phone.
(Turn off the phone, turn off the phone)

And I dream I'm on vacation
'Cause I like the way that sounds
It's a perfect occupation for me
I don't mind being by myself
If there's no one else around
It's the last good time in town.

Well, I could stand up straight, get a real job
Stay up late with the same old mob
But it hasn't crossed my mind, lately.

Put on a suit, work downtown
Then come up when the sun goes down
No, I haven't had the time, lately.

Lately I've been stayin' at home
(Stayin' at home, stayin' at home)
Closin' the curtains, play jazz on trombone.
(Jazz on trombone, jazz on trombone)

And I dream I'm on vacation
No, you won't see me around
It's a perfect situation for me
I don't mind being by myself
'Cause I know you'll come on down
It's the last good time in town.

Lately I've been stayin' at home
(Stayin' at home, stayin' at home)
Workin' the crosswords, turn off the phone.
(Turn off the phone, turn off the phone)

And I dream I'm on vacation
'Cause I like the way that sounds
It's a perfect occupation
For me, yes it is
I don't mind being by myself
If you don't see me around
It's the last good time, last good time in town.
