EXERCISE SUCKS words & music Lenny Solomon

© L.Solomon 2008

Went to the doctor, the doctor said man

What’s that in your belly, did you swallow a ham

Your heart’s getting weaker, your lungs ain’t so good

You better get some exercise, is that understood

I said doctor, you know I ain’t no young buck

I like moving slowly, ‘cause exercise sucks

I had a buddy, longed to loose some weight

He went on a elliptical, to work out into shape

After six months of sweating, he lost a pound or two

But his arms and legs just broke off, he knew not what to do

I said, buddy, I told you not to press your luck

‘cause there’s no doubt about it, exercise sucks

My wife got on my case, she said in a huff

If I didn’t work out, she’d make it very rough

If I didn’t jog, or tread on a machine

I’d see her sweetness turn into something pretty mean

I said baby, I would if I could but oh shucks

You ain’t worth the effort, ‘cause exercise sucks

Now I’m sitting pretty, I’m all by myself

My wife done left me, and my doctor died himself

I now can relax, and sip myself a beer

If anyone mentions exercise, I say “kiss my rear”

“cause I don’t care, if I look like Friar Tuck

‘cause everyday I pray and say, exercise sucks
