Lyrics - Nothing Rhymed by Osullivan Gilbert

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
Starve 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
