Nothing Rhymed

If i give up the seat i've been saving

To some elderly lady or man

Am i being a good boy

Am i your pride and joy

Mother please if your pleased say i am

And if while in the course of my duty

I perform an unfortunate take

Would you punish me so, unbelievably so



Never again will i make that mistake

This feeling inside me could never deny me

The right to be wrong if i choose

And this pleasure i get

From say winning a bet

Is to lose





When i'm drinking my bonaparte shandy

Eating more than enough apple pies

Will i glance at my screen and see real human beings strave to death

Right in front of my eyes



Nothing old, nothing new, nothing ventured

Nothing gained, nothing still-born or lost,

Nothing further than proof nothing wilder than youth

Nothing older than time, nothing sweeter than wine

Nothing physically, recklessly, hopelessly blind

Nothing i couldn't say

Nothing why 'cos today

Nothing rhymed





This feeling inside me could never deny me

The right to be wrong if i choose,

And this pleasure i get

From say winning a bet

Is to lose



Nothing good, nothing bad, nothing ventured

Nothing gained, nothing still-born or lost,

Nothing further than proof nothing wilder than youth

Nothing older than time, nothing sweeter than wine

Nothing physically, recklessly, hopelessly blind

Nothing i couldn't say

Nothing why 'cos today

Nothing rhymed
