Gilbert O`Sullivan - Nothing Rhymed

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
strave 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 want
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 want
Nothing physically
recklessly hopelessly blind
Nothing I couldn't say
Nothing why cos today
Nothing rhymed
