Nothing - The Cat Empire

Yesterday the sky looked sweet

When we dropped a big bomb at our feet

And sometime soon we all might zoom

To space and continue with another zoo

Work and pace for paper face

Spend it wisely and keep it safe

Because the human race is a non-stop race

With too many trials, but no real case

Something about this second

Something about this hour

Take away the money

Then the time becomes the power

A moment just to swim

And to shower and to sing

And to brighten and to dim

And to sleep and to wander in

Nothing

Oh sweet nothing

Today we’re doing nothing at all

La la la la la

Yesterday I climbed a hill

Then cycle down speedy on a great big wheel

Feeling ill, labored still

Grinding and stressing in that giant mill

Drove a car, stop and start

Round and 'round in circles never got too far

Running barefoot on the hot, hot tar

Cause if you stop, then you burn, then your feet get scars

Something about this instance

Something about this minute

Striving for the future

But don’t realize that we’re in it

A moment just to float

To ponder and to dote

To dry and to soak

And to take a little toke of that
