- Del Amitri nothing ever happens 歌詞
- Del Amitri
- Post office clerks put up signs saying position closed
And secretaries turn off typewriters and put on their coats
And janitors padlock the gates
For security guards to patrol
And bachelors phone up their friends for a drink
While the married ones turn on a chat show
And theyll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow
Gentlemen time please, you know we cant serve anymore
Now the traffic lights change to stop, when theres nothing to go
And by five oclock everythings dead
And every third car is a cab
And ignorant people sleep in their beds
Like the ***** white mice in the college lab
And nothing ever happens, nothing happens at all
The needle returns to the start of the song
And we all sing along like before
And well all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow
Telephone exchanges click while theres nobody there
The Martians could land in the car park and no one would care
Closed-circuit cameras in department stores
Shoot the same movie every day
And the stars of these films neither die nor get killed
Just survive constant action replay
And nothing ever happens, nothing happens at all
The needle returns to the start of the song
And we all sing along like before
And well all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow
And bill hoardings advertise products that nobody needs
While 'Angry from Manchester' writes to complain about
All the repeats on TV
Computer terminals report some gains in the values of copper and tin
While American businessmen snap up Van Goghs
For the price of a hospital wing
And nothing ever happens, nothing happens at all
The needle returns to the start of the song
And we all sing along like before
And nothing ever happens, nothing happens at all
Theyll burn down the synagogues at six oclock
And well all go along like before
And well all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow
