verse:

i'm the deacon's son
lazy as that day is long
lazy as that day is long
i'm a deacon's son

have a one eyed dog
scarin' up the hens and hogs
scarin' up the hens and hogs
have a one eyed dog


found a little friend
buried in the rocks and sand
buried in the rocks and sand
found a little friend

i'm a deacons son
lazy as that day is long
oh, as that day is long
i'm a deacon's son

instrumental

verse:

have a one eyed dog
scarin' up the hens and hogs
scarin' up the hens and hogs
have a one eyed dog

oh ooh oh oh oh

i'm a deacon's son
lazy as that day is long
could be anyone
but i'm a deacon's son

chorus:

honestly, if you wanna go look at the fauna walkin' in the moonlight
there's something that's really chilled you i just wanna thrill you and nothin' more

*(we'll find out why) we really thought it to be so hypnotic with the lights on the water
oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh


notes:

*"we'll find out why" is as close as i could come; any other interpretations?
-i also wonder if "honestly, if you wanna" might be "Donna, see if you wanna"
-there is an implied Em and Bm throughout the verse, though there isn't really anyone playing those chords in their fullness
