If I give up the seat

I've been saving

To some elderly lady or man

Am I being a good boy

Am I your pride and joy

Mother please if your pleased say

I am and if while in the course of my duty

I perform an unfortunate take

Would you punish me so

Unbelievably so

Never again will

I make that mistake

This feeling inside me could never deny me

The right to be wrong if

I choose and this pleasure

I get from say winning a bet

Is to lose

When I'm drinking my

Bonaparte

Shandy eating more than enough apple pies

Will I glance at my screen and see real human beings starve to death

Right in front of my eyes

Nothing old

Nothing new

Nothing ventured

Nothing gained

Nothing still born or lost

Nothing further than proof nothing wilder than youth

Nothing older than time

Nothing sweeter than wine

Nothing physically

Recklessly

Hopelessly blind

Nothing I couldn't say

Nothing why 'cos today

Nothing rhymed

This feeling inside me could never deny me

The right to be wrong if

I choose

And this pleasure

I get from say winning a bet

Is to lose

Nothing good

Nothing bad

Nothing ventured

Nothing gained

Nothing still born or lost

Nothing further than proof nothing wilder than youth

Nothing older than time

Nothing sweeter than wine

Nothing physically

Recklessly

Hopelessly blind

Nothing I couldn't say

Nothing why 'cos today

Nothing rhymed
