00:05I was battered by the battles and the scars
00:11I was baffled by the signals from the stars
00:18I could see my shadow cast upon the writing on the wall
00:26But I couldn't think what to sing about it all
00:33You can sing a song of trouble but it only makes it double
00:40And a song of hope invites an unexpected fall
00:46You can sing of the joys of living and the virtues of forgiving
00:54But today I'm gonna sing about nothing at all
01:04I've been hammered in the heart and in the head
01:10Known the hell of heaven withheld as someone said
01:17I can see my own reflection but it's twisted in the glass
01:25And I wanna sing that all these things will pass
01:31I could sing a song of beauty if I tried to do my duty
01:38And cheer the world with a resounding rallying call
01:45I could sing of gin and roses
01:49But the secret I suppose is
01:52To find words to fit a song about nothing at all
02:06Here's the verse that tells you nothing
02:09Not of hating, not of loving
02:13It's hot and cold and long and short and tall
02:20It's not about disaster
02:23It's not a sticky plaster
02:26This is just a song about nothing at all
02:33No, this is just a song about nothing at all
02:42Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing at all
