It's Always Nothing

[good4somethingbum]

It’s Always NothingWell, it was always something, when I was a married manPinochle with the in-laws, or waxing her mini-vanBack then I thought nothing, of thinking of myselfSomething told me I deserved it, and soon I had someone elseMy wife couldn’t take no moreSo she took the cars and houseBuddy, take me at my wordCos she took everything and nowIt’s always nothing yeahO there’s a vacuum in my heartI’m just a broken shellA shadow that’s lost in the darkIt’s always nothing andKnowing that fills me with regretIf you ain’t seen my tearsWell, then you ain’t seen nothing yetNothing would’ve pleased me more, when I wore a wedding ringThan to taste some freedom, and not have to hide a thingI would’ve stopped at nothing, to hit on ev’ry brunetteBut man there’s nothing doing, when a man is wedNow it’s empty one night standsAnd empty Lowenbrausfightin’ to fill the voidOf my empty marriage vowschorusSo if you want something on the sideBuddy, don’t you do itYeah, you’ll lose it all in one short nightMan there’s nothing to itit’s always nothing…©2007 Robert George
