lyrics

No matter what happens now… do nothing
Got it without the subtitles
When you’re working all day and you’re working all night
You want to turn out the light and do nothing
When you’re drinking all day, and you’re running all night
And you wake up with exactly nothing

They got you in a headlock, you’re drowning in the future shock
You’re living in a deadlock, forever running out of luck
You’re walking on a tightrope, don’t ever push the envelope
You got precisely no hope, forgotten how to take a joke

No matter what happens now, do nothing
People do nothing
People say nothing
People do nothing
Got it without the subtitles

When the stories are gone and the medicine’s wrong
And rather than shout you do nothing
When you’re covered in woke and everyone’s broke
We all end up with exactly nothing

They got you in a headlock, you’re drowning in the future shock
You’re living in a deadlock, forever running out of luck
You’re walking on a tightrope, don’t ever push the envelope
You got precisely no hope, forgotten how to take a joke

No matter what happens now, do nothing
People do nothing
People say nothing
People do nothing
Got it without the subtitles

They got you in a headlock, you’re drowning in the future shock
You’re living in a deadlock, forever running out of luck
You’re walking on a tightrope, don’t ever push the envelope
You got precisely no hope, forgotten how to take a joke
