A Happy Nothing

 

Words mean everything

When you sing them out loud, but don't know what you sing 

Though I don't really care, cause I sit by the

Window and stare at the world's offerings.

And If I could, would I do something about it

Find something to say and go out and shout it

Or would I stay here and do nothing at all

Ignore what I saw and do nothing to hide it.

Words mean everything

When you sing them out loud, but don't know what you sing

Though I don't really care, cause I sit by the

window and stare at the world's offerings.

If I said I'm lazy would it be all right

Would I have to fight to stay out of sight?

Or would you open your arm, say there's no harm

And show there's a bark but no bite

 

And If I showed I'd do nothing at all

Did nothing to stall my inevitable fall    

I'll still need to be whisked away,

shown it's O.K. won't someone answer my call?

And If I showed I'd do nothing at all

 Did nothing to stall my inevitable fall

I'll still need to be whisked away,

shown it's  O.K. won't someone answer my call?

Words mean everything

When you sing them out loud, but don't know what you sing
