Lazy by Troydon Wainwright

How many times must I tell you I’ve told you?
How many times must I say what I’ve said?
A person can only repeat themselves
So many times
Before they shout the message
Still you will insist on asking again
On not paying attention to begin with
On using my mind to be your memory
I can imagine your brain getting fat
While mine is lean and sinewy
One day you will have to do without me
And when your brain breaks a sweat
It will come out in tears
