Inertia
"A body at rest tends to remain at rest...."My body seems to do that best
My wife insists I rest too long
A scathing appraisal I think is wrong
Lethargy's for me, I so enjoy it
Inertia's for me, so I employ it
What's wrong in resting as I please?
It's not a crime or a disease
If I could have my way
I'd do nothing every day
Lethargic I may be, I'm no go-getter
Reposing is just great, there's nothing better
To nap the day away is most relaxing
Avoiding things too strenuously taxing
I've never been too tightly wound
I have no urge to rush around
Inertia fills my fond desires
Tranquillity is all this lad requires
