Daniel Johnston - Nothing lyrics

Not that you want to be Out of curiosity Just a corsage of the world I was in love with a girl I would the violence foresee All that it ought to be Blessed by generosity Sure to put your heart in a whirl Stop to pick up a dollar bill As the blood drips at the mill You have fried chicken You ate it up so fast Laid down its life just for you Now you have nothing to do Just a television tube Oh for goodness sake And the love you make Skipping stones at the lake You have a half baked idea To think we'd be so glad to see ya Lost in your lonely room How they grow up and bloom Young girls in the magazine How they took part in your doom Baby step out of the room Hunger and lust for life She was like any housewife Darning the socks with concern Glad you ever were born Just to get up in the morn While all the while you work Surrounding by amateurs Craving and love showing fame Thinking your hope was refrained In the emotional pain Nothing to do but cry As you dry your eyes Watching the soap opera die Longing for the freedom of success When we're all just a temporary guest Living in such a mess I'll bring you back again To the flight you used to have been How could you really win Pledging your resistance to sin? Applied in the twilight Anything to make it right When there's nothing left but nothing But an empty song Why did it have to go wrong How it all works out Something about it so Thinking that love is a crime You were a friend of mine Standing there with missed time You're gonna make a joke That is sure too follow Happy to be that way Tomorrow is a brand new day What do you have to say? Nothing
