The Lyrics
We're no strangers to sloth
You snore and drool and so do I
More sluggishness is what I'm thinking of
We won't have to lift thumbs or open our eyes
I just wanna tell you what I'm dreaming
Automatic help to stand ---
Lever gonna lift you up!
Lever gonna set you down!
Never gonna need again to exert you!
Lever gonna take you high!
Lever gonna save your thigh!
Never gonna exercise, or work you!
We've laid around like slugs so long
Pizza's done baking - here's some parmesan - grate it!
Outside we don't go 'cause TV is on
We watch the game and we Frito-Lay it
And if my lazy gizmo was real
Think how easy your life could be ---
Lever gonna lift you up!
Lever gonna set you down!
Never gonna need again to exert you!
Lever gonna take you high!
Lever gonna save your thigh!
Never gonna exercise, or work you!
Lever gonna lift you up!
Lever gonna set you down!
Never gonna need again to exert you!
Lever gonna take you high!
Lever gonna save your thigh!
Never gonna exercise, or work you!
(Oooh lift you up)
(Oooh lift you up)
(Oooh) Lever gonna lift
Lever gonna lift, (lift you up)
(Oooh) Lever gonna lift
Lever gonna lift, (lift you up)
We're so lazy, will-power's gone
You feel like sleeping? Here's some Valium - take it!
Outside we don't go 'cause football is on
We just lie here eating pounds of bacon
I just wanna tell you what I'm scheming
Electronic help to stand ---
Lever gonna lift you up!
Lever gonna set you down!
Never gonna need again to exert you!
Lever gonna take you high!
Lever gonna save your thigh!
Never gonna exercise, or work you!
(repeat chorus to fade)
You snore and drool and so do I
More sluggishness is what I'm thinking of
We won't have to lift thumbs or open our eyes
I just wanna tell you what I'm dreaming
Automatic help to stand ---
Lever gonna lift you up!
Lever gonna set you down!
Never gonna need again to exert you!
Lever gonna take you high!
Lever gonna save your thigh!
Never gonna exercise, or work you!
We've laid around like slugs so long
Pizza's done baking - here's some parmesan - grate it!
Outside we don't go 'cause TV is on
We watch the game and we Frito-Lay it
And if my lazy gizmo was real
Think how easy your life could be ---
Lever gonna lift you up!
Lever gonna set you down!
Never gonna need again to exert you!
Lever gonna take you high!
Lever gonna save your thigh!
Never gonna exercise, or work you!
Lever gonna lift you up!
Lever gonna set you down!
Never gonna need again to exert you!
Lever gonna take you high!
Lever gonna save your thigh!
Never gonna exercise, or work you!
(Oooh lift you up)
(Oooh lift you up)
(Oooh) Lever gonna lift
Lever gonna lift, (lift you up)
(Oooh) Lever gonna lift
Lever gonna lift, (lift you up)
We're so lazy, will-power's gone
You feel like sleeping? Here's some Valium - take it!
Outside we don't go 'cause football is on
We just lie here eating pounds of bacon
I just wanna tell you what I'm scheming
Electronic help to stand ---
Lever gonna lift you up!
Lever gonna set you down!
Never gonna need again to exert you!
Lever gonna take you high!
Lever gonna save your thigh!
Never gonna exercise, or work you!

Sounds like my life....555
Best lever song I've ever seen =)
It's like a dream come true!
DKTOS but like the parody.
Voted 5's, although my fingers kept slipping off the keys from the BLT with Fritos that I had for lunch, as I watch the replay from MNF that I slept through. Very funny, Johnny
This parody is phat!
I love it Johnny!! 5s...
Thank you, Kristof, Jeff, Ashkicksass, JB, Dee, Peter, and Arwen!
Just can't imagine how people ever managed without levers - 555
Thanks Stuart!

(ABC05) They already make power chairs that raise so you can get up. Funny parody Johnny D.
(ABC2005) Humorous stuff as always, JD.
"Bed goes up. Bed goes down. Bed goes up.Bed goes down."
"Bed goes up. Bed goes down. Bed goes up.Bed goes down."
(L) Now that's lazy. Nice job.
