Loving you is driving me crazy 
People say that you were born lazy
'Cause you say that 
Work Is A Four-Letter Word 

So change your life 
There is so much I know 
That you can do 
Come and see ... 

Wide-awake 
And take all of this love 
That is waiting for you 

If you stay 
I'll stay right beside you 
And my love 
May help to remind you 
To forget that 
Work Is A Four-Letter Word 

I don't need 
A house that's a showplace 
I just feel 
That we're going no place 
While you say that 
Work Is A Four-Letter Word 

So change your life 
There is so much I know 
You can do 
Come and see ... 

Wide-awake 
And take all of this love 
That is waiting for you 

If you stay 
I'll stay right beside you 
And my love 
Might help to remind you 
To forget that 
Work Is A Four-Letter Word 
Oh ... 

I don't need 
A house that's a showplace 
I just feel 
That we're going no place 
While you say that 
Work Is A Four-Letter Word 

So change your life 
There is so much I know 
That you can do 
Please come and see ... 

Wide-awake 
And take all of this love 
That is waiting for you
