Nothing
by John Cooper Clarke
nothing isn’t anything
it’s tasteless and it’s flat
nothing if it’s anything
is even less than that
I’ve got that certain nothing
no one can do without
the Spanish call it nada
I call it nowt
I’d take the train but don’t care
to travel by myself
all the way from nowhere
to get nowhere else
nothing ever goes on
nothing never ends
say nothing to no one
it’s nothing to do with them
nothing going on and on
nothing wall to wall
it happens once and then it’s gone
leaving bugger all
