Nothing Lyrics

Not that you want to be

Out of curiosity

Just a corsage of the world

I was in love with a girl

I would the violence foresee



All that it ought to be

Blessed by generosity

Sure to put your heart in a whirl

Stop to pick up a dollar bill

As the blood drips at the mill



You have fried chicken

You ate it up so fast

Laid down its life just for you

Now you have nothing to do

Just a television tube



Oh for goodness sake

And the love you make

Skipping stones at the lake

You have a half baked idea

To think we'd be so glad to see ya



Lost in your lonely room

How they grow up and bloom

Young girls in the magazine

How they took part in your doom

Baby step out of the room



Hunger and lust for life

She was like any housewife

Darning the socks with concern

Glad you ever were born

Just to get up in the morn



While all the while you work

Surrounding by amateurs

Craving and love showing fame

Thinking your hope was refrained

In the emotional pain



Nothing to do but cry

As you dry your eyes

Watching the soap opera die

Longing for the freedom of success

When we're all just a temporary guest



Living in such a mess

I'll bring you back again

To the flight you used to have been

How could you really win

Pledging your resistance to sin?



Applied in the twilight

Anything to make it right

When there's nothing left but nothing

But an empty song

Why did it have to go wrong



How it all works out

Something about it so

Thinking that love is a crime

You were a friend of mine

Standing there with missed time



You're gonna make a joke

That is sure too follow

Happy to be that way

Tomorrow is a brand new day

What do you have to say?



Nothing.
