Couch Potato

I'm a couch potato

And the life I live is tough

People always tell me

That I never move enough

Resting and reposing

Is all I have ever done

Exercising daily

Isn't my idea of fun


I'm a couch potato

So relaxed you'd think me dead

Perfectly content

To spend a year alone in bed

Wouldn't choose a marathon

Cycling or a swim

Wouldn't opt for skateboarding

Ju-jitsu or the gym


I'm a couch potato

Stretching out on your settee

Rather watch the telly

Than to walk from A to B

Won't take up a hobby

Or give something new a try

Everyone calls me a slob

(Spelt L, A, Z and Y)


I'm a couch potato

As bone idle as they come

What's my favourite hobby?

Simply sitting on my bum

A spud just veg, no arms, no legs

No wonder I'm a slouch

Yes, I am a potato

Lying here upon your couch
