Keith Lemon is a fictional character, portrayed by English comedian Leigh Francis. Lemon is most famous for his comedy panel show Celebrity Juice.
In a 2006 interview, Francis claimed that Lemon is loosely based on his best friend. Lemon is easily distinguished by his camp demeanour, exaggerated Yorkshire accent, bleached mullet, ginger moustache and fake tan. According to Leigh Francis, Lemon's background is that of a failed businessman, who was most successful in 1993, when he won the prestigious Businessman of the Year award for his innovative creation, the securi-pole".
Lemon was first portrayed in 2000, on a short lived television programme entitled "Whatever I Want", aired on London Weekend Television. The programme also featured Francis' other two main characters, Avid Merrion, and a human version of The Bear. All three characters were in very early stages of development, and in comparison to Francis' appearances in Bo' Selecta! and beyond, his actions and behaviour remain similar, but are noticeably different to that of the final personalities of the characters. An episode of this programme is available to view on YouTube.

Lazy bones sleepin' in the sun how you think you gonna get your day work done
You'll never get your day work done sleepin' in the noonday sun
Lazy bones sleepin' in the shade how you gonna get your corn meal made
You'll never get your corn meal made sleepin' in the noonday shade
When taters need sprayin' I bet you keep prayin' the bugs fall off of the vine
And when you go fishin' I bet you keep wishin' the fish won't grab at your line
Lazy bones loafin' through the day how you spec you gonna make a dime that way
You'll never make a dime that way sleepin' in the noonday shade
[ spoken part ]
I'd like to tell you folks a tale about a certain guy
He's never done a full days work and that friend ain't no lie
When he was just a kid you know still lyin' in his crib he wouldn't shake his rattle i ain't aimin' none to fib
But i bet you people won't beleive me if i tell you this
He never went a swimming or pretty girl he didn't kiss
You see the effort he put forth would be so week and frail
Even if the kid did try he'd most likely fail
His folks were both discusted with the lazy little lout and even though they beat him he never did get out
He grew fast in fact the fasted thing he ever done
And soon he reached the ripe old age fourty years and one
He got a wife to work for him and even told her how to mop the floor
Feed the hogs and milk the jersey cow
He taught her all the chores around, the chores he should have done
While he just sits arouind the home and she was on the run
come meal time though he'd be as prompt as six oclock and stuff himself
Yes he would eat far more than all the farming stock
But he's older now ageing fast still he don't have cry
Cause when his master calls for him he'll be to lazy to die
Lazy bones sleepin' through the day how you spec you gonna make a dime that way
Lazybones, sleepin' in the sun
How you 'spect to get your day's work done?
Never get your day's work done
I'm sleepin' in this noon day sun
Lazybones, lyin' in the shade
How you 'spect to get your cornmeal made?
Never get your cornmeal made
I'm sleepin' in this evening shade
When taters need sprayin', I bet you keep prayin'
The bugs fall off of the vine
And when you go fishin' I bet you keep wishin'
The the fish don't grab at your line
Lazybones, loafin' all the day
How you gonna' make a dime that way
Never make a dime that way
(Johnny Mercer/Hoagy Carmichael)
Lazy bones
Sleeping, sleeping in a noon day sun
Tell me, how you spect to get your days work done
Days work done
You'll never get your days work done
Sleeping, lazy bones
Sleeping in a noon day sun
When day's dusk means praying
I bet you keep praying
That all the bugs fall off the vineAnd when you go fishing
I bet you keep wishing
That the fish would never never grab your line
You old lazy bones
Loafin, loafin all through the day
Tell me how you spect to make a dime that way
Dime that way
You'll never make a dime that way
Well look at him, lazy bones
Never hear a word I say
Lazy bones
You know I am gettin' tired doing all the work my self
(Man you ain't doin' all the work)
I just can't seem to get the help around here
(Oh, Johny don't give me that man)
Can't you hear me
(I hear you, baby)
No, I guess not
Lazybones sleeping in the sun
How you 'spect to get your day's work done?
Never get your day's work done
Sleeping in the new day's sun
(Nah, that's your side of the story, Johny)
Tell me yours
(I'm about to tell you now)
Lazybones sleepin' in the shade
How you 'spect to get your cornmeal made?
You'll never get your cornmeal made
Just sleepin' in the evenin' shade
When 'taters need spraying I bet you keep praying
The bugs fall off the vine
And when you go fishin', I bet you keep wishin'
The fish won't grab your line, oh no
Lazybones loafing through the day
How you 'spect to get a dime that way?
Never make a dime that way, ha
Never heard a word I say
When 'taters need spraying I bet you keep praying
The bugs fall off the vine
And when you go fishin', I bet you keep wishin'
The fish won't grab your line
Lazybones loafing through the day
How you 'spect to make a dime that way?
Never make a dime that way, well, look here
Never heard a word I say
(Man you ain't workin')
I don't get a chance to go fishin'
I have to do all the work
(Ahh, you think so, huh)
I know so
(I ain't seen no fish)
They don't bite because you still sleep
(That's 'cause you set my alarm clock 4 hours later
Just so you can brag about workin')
I don't even get a nibble
('Cause you ain't usin' the right bait man)
Lazybones, sleepin' in the sun
How you 'spect to get your day's work done?
You can't get your day's work done
Sleepin' in the noon day sun
Lazybones, layin' in the shade
How you gonna get your cornmeal made?
You can't get no cornmeal made
Sleepin' in that evening shade
When taters need sprayin',
I bet you keep prayin'
The bugs'll fall off of the vine
And when you go fishin'
I bet you keep wishin'
Them fish don't grab your line
Lazybones, loafin' all the day
How you 'spect to make a dime that way?
You won't make no dime that way
I'm taking time out for reflecting
I'm going one on one with who I'd like to be
I'm leaning towards the sun
Watching flowers blossom all around me
I tried wailin' to a wall
Standin' like porcelain, mumblin',
Salt water rollin' down side burns,
Searchin' for the answers, handling the truth
Seein' it for myself is the only way
Forget a winner, stop being a sinner first
Ruining your liver, smoking cigarettes and worse
Love is a killer, the leading cause of suicide
How to survive a day in the life of times
(chorus)
I'll rock the vote not to hear you
Tell me that I'm watching too much T.V.
Then I'll hope that I can win with the lazy bones I'm livin' in
It's not my fault I wasn't chosen
I was focused in the open
I deserve so much better than this
I'm shooting airballs from the free-throw line
I'm batting lefty when I know that I'm alright
I'm reaching out for the sun
Being passed by shooting stars overnight
I been livin' with a small inner child
Antsy, I can't sit still for a minute
My shortage of concentration ruins meditation
And my motivation ain't shit
I need a way
My tolerance ain't what it used to be
Dollars make sense sellin' out for a fee
If I didn't have faith, could you still save me?
How to survive the lines we hate to lead
(chorus)
F**k the future
I'm in the present plague
Can't be a loser, my girl won't stay
I don't know computers, I was sick that day
How to survive the mines we chose to lay
alright...
When all the limbs are numb and clean,
And you're in transit, dream to dream,
I'll drift there to meet you, lazybones.
When all the world has lain and sank,
And money sleeps inside the banks,
Well I'll be there to meet you, layzbones.
Lazybones
Cameraman sways to remember how the eye dances,
Drunkenness is a hand-held
scrambling down Delancey
I come stumbling;
Well I hear you had to take a shine
and firing at random, I hear the rays fell upon mine.
Cool you, Miss Amaze, with a handful of water
trucks encircling, bearing down, coming louder.
If I could stay here, under your idle caress
and not exit to the world and phoniness and people.
Lazybones
Lazybones
When all the noise has left your head
will someday you rise off the bed?
I'll be there to lift you, lazybones.
Lazybones
Lazybones
Finally I don't mind
Not as smart as you require
Not as smart as you require
(M. Doughty)
When all the limbs are numb and clean,
and you're in transit, dream to dream,
I'll drift there to meet you, lazybones.
When all the world has lain and sank,
and money sleeps inside the banks,
I'll drift there to meet you, layzbones.
Cameraman sways to remember how the eye dances,
drunkenness is a hand-held
scrambling down Delancey
I come stumbling;
well I hear you had to take a shine
and firing at random, I hear the rays fell upon mine.
Cool you, Miss Amaze, with a handful of water
trucks encircling, bearing down, coming louder.
If I could stay here, under your idle caress
and not exit to the world and phoniness and people.
When all the noise has left your head
will someday you rise off the bed?
Lazy bones, sleepin' in the sun
How you 'xpect to get your day's work done?
Never get your day's work done
Sleepin' in the noon day sun
Now, lazy bones, sleepin' in the shade
How you expect to get your corn meal made?
You'll never get your corn meal made
Just sleepin' in the evening shade
When tainers need sprayin', I bet you keep prayin'
The bugs'll fall off the vine
And when you go fishin' I bet you keep wishin'
The fish won't grab your line
Now, lazy bones, loafin' through the day
How you 'xpect to make a dime that way?
You'll never make a dime that way
Never heard a word I say
Now when tainers need sprayin', I bet you keep prayin'
That the bugs'll fall off the vine
And when you go fishin' I bet you keep wishin'
That the cat fish drops your line
Lazy bones, loafin' through the day
How you 'xpect to get a dime that way?
You'll never make a dime that way
Lazybones, sleepin' in the sun
How you spect to get your day's work done?
I don't wanna get my day's work done
I'm sleepin' in this noon day sun
Lazybones, lyin' in the shade
How you spect to get your cornmeal made?
I don't wanna get no cornmeal made
I'm sleepin' in this evening shade
When taters need sprayin', oh, I bet you keep prayin'
The bugs fall off of the vine
I keep prayin' and when I go fishin' I always keep
wishin'
That the fish don't grab at my line
Lazybones, loafin' all the day
How you spect to make a dime that way
I don't wanna make a dime no way
Can't you see, I ain't heard a word you say
Maybe it's the make-up or a part of my design
Maybe you could put it down to changing of the times
I couldn't begin to tell you all the reasons to why
But everybody seems to get a high from bringing me down
I know I'm only taking my time
I try to explain but it's not that easy 'no'
If I'm wrong and maybe you're right
But I can't do nothing with a ten tonne weight on my mind
(Oh) I don't want to live my life...
"Never Gonna Get Your Act together Mr Lazy Bones"
(Oh) ...being just another part of the scenery
Working my days away
Some will catch a break and make a million over night
Some will put their faith upon a man in the sky
I wouldn't begin to tell them all a wrong from right
I'm taking time out for reflecting
I'm going one on one with who I'd like to be
I'm leaning towards the sun
Watching flowers blossom all around me
I tried wailin' to a wall
Standin' like porcelain, mumblin',
Salt water rollin' down side burns,
Searchin' for the answers, handling the truth
Seein' it for myself is the only way
Forget a winner, stop being a sinner first
Ruining your liver, smoking cigarettes and worse

He plays all night, then sleeps all day
Waves at the dawn
With a stretch and a yawn
He has to go to work at eight
But he might have a cough
So he's sleeping it off
(Chorus)
Lazy bones
Never worked so hard
Well, I hope you never break
Lazy bones
Oh, you're working so hard
He sleeps like he's got something to prove
Somewhere to explore
With a wink and a snore
He's at the end of misspent youth
Just a blur in a dream
Too quick to be seen
Ba da baba ba ba ba ba
Side by side as if they died in tandom all for love
And every day we wear away the faces with a touch
But kiss me now and we'll be saved
We'll lie in state upon their grave
When I am dead I'll be a bed for lovers too
Ooh, it's not the way I planned to go
A final blaze all(?) set in stone
Hardly meant, I'm barely shown
But you, you're carved into my memory
Oh, leave a little room for me
I wouldn't want you to be lonely
Ba da baba ba ba ba ba
Well, all the grass is cut until it's neat and short
and gone
Or trampled underneath their feet the moment we move on
I bite my nails, you grow your hair
Rebellion's such a hushed affair
Wrapped up in arms and underwear is how I like you
Ooh, it's not the way I planned to go
A final blaze all(?) set in stone
Hardly meant, I'm barely shown
But you, you're carved into my memory
Oh, leave a little room for me
I wouldn't want you to be lonely, lonely
Ooh...
Ba da baba ba ba ba ba
Da da da da
They say that all things die alone
Come back to bed, my lazybones
And light another cigarette so I can breathe your air
Then even when my eyes are closed I'll know that you're
still there
And as we move from dust to dust, what will survive of
us is love
And even if it's not enough, it's something good
Ooh, it's not the way I planned to go
A final blaze all(?) set in stone
I'm hardly meant, I'm barely shown
But you, you're carved into my memory
Oh, leave a little room for me
I wouldn't want you to be lonely
If it's just waiting for the quiet times that you like
If you need me to say I'm wrong to make you know that you're right
Take whatever you need from me tonight
Even if it's just waiting for the quiet times that you like
Come on let's make this better
Dark days and heavy weather
My lazy bones are broken up
Hidden away and covered up
If it's just holding on for something good to turn up, alright
If it's just picturing the better times with hindsight
Take whatever you need from me tonight
Even if it's just waiting for the quiet times that you like
Come on let's make this better
Dark days and heavy weather
My lazy bones are broken up
Hidden away and covered up
Solo
Ooooooooh....my lazy bones
Ooooooooh....my lazy bones
Aaaaaaaah.......my lazy bones
Aaaaaaaah
Come on let's make this better
Dark days and heavy weather
My lazy bones are broken up
Hidden away and covered up
Come on let's make this better
Dark days and heavy weather
My lazy bones are broken up
Hidden away and covered up
Screen is blue, and the fire is red
Should I get up, or stay in bed?
No I believe I've got it wrong
Stay right here, where I belong
'Cause I've got the brains, they’re there in my head
Well all that remains, is just to get out of bed.
I'm missing the best, part of the day,
Stealing tomorrow to help me get over today.
Just an ordinary guy,
Shoes have got holes and my hopes are high.
I've got to say, though I'm confused,
Well everyone that I pass seems so amused.
‘Cause I've got the wheels, but I don't got the time,
I know how it feels, stuck at the back of the line.
I've don't got the words, it’s not easy to say,
Stealing' tomorrow to help me get over today.
'Cause I've got the brains, they’re there my head,
All that remains, is just to get out of bed,
I'm missing the best, part of the day,
Well its way too soon to have the seven year itch
But he's getting cranky and I'm just a bit... unsure
I'll tell you what I mean
You see when we first met I thought well this is it
But it turns out my head was just full of sh... ining stars
Things just ain't what they seem
CHORUS: Ooooh my cards are played, my cards are played
Ooooh I wanna get lazy bones out my back door
UUh Uhh Uuhhuh uuhhuh huh yeah
Now I'm not the type to make the first pass
But when he walked by and I saw his as... h coloured eyes
Well it was like a dream... oh yes it was
Now my dreams are lying in broken bits
And I know he onl loved me for my big T... elevision
I've got a wide screen!
Well I love getting hugged and I love geting kissed
And he loves beer and he loves getting p... retty drunk
It goes straight to his head oh yes it does
And I guess my mother warned me when I was 5 or 6
She said that men like him only think with their de... fective brains
Least I think that's what she said
Lazy bones, Lazy bones
Lazy bones, sleepin' in the sun,
How you 'spect to get your day's work done?
You'll never get your day's work done sleepin' in the noon day sun.
Lazy bones, sleepin' in the shade,
How you 'spect to get your cornmeal made?
You'll never get your cornmeal made sleepin' in the evening shade.
When taters need sprayin', I bet you keep prayin'
The bugs fall off the vine;
And when you go fishin' I bet you keep wishin'
That the fish won't grab at your line.
Lazy bones, loafin' through the day,
How you 'spect to make a dime that way?
You'll never make a dime that way. Never heard a word I say.
When taters need sprayin', I bet you keep prayin'
The bugs fall off the vine;
And when you go fishin' I bet you keep wishin'
That the fish won't grab at your line.
Lazy bones, loafin' through the day,
How you 'spect to make a dime that way?
Slow it down, just for a while
Drag it out for a couple of miles
Don't spend tonight out on the tiles
You need to sleep, you need to dream
You need to slip into places unseen
Slide into space with the snow on the screen
Lazy bones, that's what they'll say
But you don't need to make a dime today
Lazy bones, that's what they'll think
Just stand on the shore and watch ‘em sink
You can float and you can fly
Like branches and boats and birds in the sky
Beyond the beyond, leave your troubles behind
And when you awake in the middle of the night
Sleep in your eyes, no one in sight
Come knock on my window, I'll leave on the
Light of your life, life of your own
Light on your feet, feeling alone
Light up the sky, why would you fight?
Under the stars that light up your night
Taking your time, making your way
Taking your breath, pacing your day
Waving your hands from your hazy home
Lazy bones, don't be afraid
Of your place in the sun, of the choices you made
The game that they're playing doesn't have to be played
They think this rock was meant to be rolled
And the time that they bought was meant to be sold
Come on, turn ‘em all off, turn lead into gold
Lazy bones, look at you now
Made in the shade and taking a bow
Lazy bones, that's what they'll think
Lazybones, when you roam
Don't you close your
Don't you close your eyes
Drenched and armed
Dried and calm
Don't recognise you walking in the light
Don't recognise you walking in the light
Leaves with you
Don't you tell no
Don't you tell no lies
Don't you tell no
Don't you tell no lies
Don't you tell no
