On the couch sits a sloth, sloth, sloth, sloth
Does nothing all day long, long, long, long
Oh, excuse me! How come I do nothing?
On the couch sits a sloth, sloth, sloth, sloth

Who is sitting on the couch?
Who ate the first breakfast?
Who spat and caught it today,
And scratched their head this way?
And who, oh tell me, oh tell me, oh tell me,
Lost their rain boots today, oh tell me?

On the couch sits a sloth, sloth, sloth, sloth
Does nothing all day long, long, long, long
Oh, excuse me! How come I do nothing?
On the couch sits a sloth, sloth, sloth, sloth
Sloth, sloth, sloth, sloth

Haven’t I skipped my cod-liver oil?
Didn’t I leave my ears unspoiled?
Didn’t I rip off a button?
Didn’t I stick out my tongue for nothing?
Didn’t I go and get a trim?

And all of that counts as nothing?
And all of that counts as nothing, nothing?

Oh tell me, oh tell me, oh tell me,
Lost their rain boots today, oh tell me

On the couch sits a sloth, sloth, sloth, sloth
Does nothing all day long, long, long, long
Oh, excuse me! How come I do nothing?
On the couch sits a sloth, sloth, sloth, sloth
Sloth, sloth, sloth, sloth
