I was supposed to take the trash
I meant to check the mail
I was due to count the cash

And to fix a rusty nail
Today I had a lot of things to do
But I put them on hold to follow you


I was supposed to paint the door
I meant to check the box

I was due to settle my score
And to wash my smelly socks
Today I had a lot of things to do

But I put them on hold to follow you

When you go down to the tanning center

Because you're a little pale
Before you can even enter
I will be on your tail


I was supposed to shave a goat?
I meant to check the facts

I was going to buy a boat
And to pay my income tax
Today I had a lot of things to do

But I put them on hold to follow you

No matter where you are going

I'm always on your track
Even if you go bowling
I will be on your back
