Late-summer sick day as power move: too cozy to listen, walk off the edge of the earth, then admit lazy can be lonely: come over, easy company.

Track four on I, the lazy song that isn’t actually lazy about feelings. Call in sick, stay under covers, zero shame about it. The chorus reframes sloth as sovereignty: you can fire me, but honestly / you can’t control my weather. Rest as something nobody else gets to schedule.

Then the crack: being lazy can be lonely. The title only lands in the outro, after the song admits ease still wants company (won’t you come over? I’m easy company). On an album full of u, this is the track that says rest is allowed, and so is asking someone to share it.

Lou Roy, background vocals.

Lyrics
Late summer gonna call in sick today
Stay under covers
I am lazy in every way
I do not care if you are judging me, judging me
I am too cozy to listen

I'm gonna take it easy every day
I'm taking back my power
You can fire me, but honestly
You can't control my weather
Gonna take it easy, ooo
Yeah, I'm gonna take it easy, ooo

Good afternoon
I'm gonna step outside and then
I'm gonna walk until the pretty pavement ends
Running farther than any man has done
Off the edge of the earth
And float around the sun in orbit
I love it

I'm gonna take it easy every day
I'm taking back my power
You can fire me, but honestly
You can't control my weather
Gonna take it easy, ooo
Yeah, I'm gonna take it easy, ooo
Hmm

Will somebody join me, join me?
Being lazy can be lonely, lonely
I'm floating on an island in silence
Won't you come over?
I'm easy company

I'm gonna take it easy every day
I'm taking back my power
You can fire me, but honestly
You can't control my weather
Gonna take it easy, oh
Yeah, I'm gonna take it easy, ooo

Gonna take it easy peasy
Gonna take it easy peasy
Gonna take it easy peasy
Gonna take it easy, easy
