[Verse 1] The good thing about you being gone I can watch the game all day long I can stretch my legs out in the bed Extra pillows underneath my head
[Chorus] Don't why nobody told me about the upside of lonely
[Verse 2] I got a lot more room for my stuff And I only have to wash one cup I can stay up late and play my guitar And the groceries go twice as far
[Chorus] Don't why nobody told me about the upside of lonely
[Verse 3] Your girlfriends ain't ringing the phone off the wall And I never have to hear from the mother in law I ain't cut the grass since the middle of june I smoke a big cigar right up in my living room
[Chorus] Don't why nobody told me about the upside of lonely
[Verse 4] I drop my dirty clothes on the floor I let the trash pile up by the door I eat pizza three times a day I ain't worried ‘bout watching my weight
[Chorus] Don't why nobody told me about the upside of lonely
