Verse 1

The day just won't start today

I wanna do so much but I don't get to it

Tomorrow 'cause I don't feel like it now

Today I'd way rather be lazy than tired

Chorus 1

I think I'd better do as little as possible

Better just give in to gravity

So I'm going horizontal

Long lazy chillin', lying wherever we want

Super lazy, not normal

Horizontal

Hours of nothing, bingeing Netflix

Completely, totally

Verse 2

We also don't feel like cooking

If we're hungry we call for fries

We can still just walk to the door

But that's as far as we get

Chorus 2

Maybe we'd better do as little as we can

We give in to gravity

So we go horizontal

Long lazy chillin', lying wherever we want

Super lazy, not normal

Horizontal

Hours of nothing, bingeing Netflix

Completely, totally

Verse 3

Come close

We've been lying still long enough

Everything off but the light

Shall we move a bit more

Move

Chorus 3

We go horizontal

Long lazy chillin', lying wherever we want

Super lazy, not normal

Horizontal

Can I belong with you

Completely lost

Completely, totally

SONG MEANING

Need an anthem for those duvet-days when gravity wins? Metejoor’s Horizontaal is a cheeky celebration of supreme laziness. The Belgian pop star shrugs off alarms and to-do lists, choosing instead to sprawl out, binge-watch series, and order fries to the door. Every line revels in the joy of doing absolutely nothing, turning the horizontal position into a state of mind.

Yet beneath the playful slacker vibe hides a sweet message about togetherness. By inviting a loved one to “come closer” and share the couch, Metejoor shows that sometimes the best way to connect is to switch everything off (except the light) and simply be still. Horizontaal reminds us that rest, comfort, and a little shared laziness can be just as uplifting as any grand adventure—so hit play, lie back, and enjoy the art of doing nothing.
