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
