Lazy was sung once by Glenn Hughes, according to the list of songs I found online. However, I can't find a video of this. I can't find the origninal place where I found that Glenn sang Lazy, but here is a link to a playlist of all songs Glenn has sung. Lazy is listed down past #141 (as a Deep Purple song he performed)   https://www.setlist.fm/stats/glenn-hughes-3bd68044.html

I can’t believe how lazy you can be. I could lie here dying; you would not rescue me. Water could be thrown on you; I bet you’d stay in bed, not caring you were wet. You munch all day on cookies, chips and candy drinking beer or whiskey, and sometimes brandy. Your belly’s growing fatter week by week. To what could I compare your huge physique? A walrus that got beached? An elephant? To your own self you’re an impediment. Why can’t you just get up and walk around? King of Great Big Lazy Heads you should be crowned. You’ve got no self-respect, and well I know you won’t get up to even see me go! So adios, you great big lazy head. Hope you'll change your ways before you’re dead.

Dear sweet andrea, I love the rhymes in this and how you are so open about your thoughts is quite refreshing to read. Its sad and i feel sorry for so many that have drinking problems and sometimes theres so many underlying reasons for these isses we witness. You can write on any song or any theme just effortlessly. Sending you light always
