Nothing Rhymed - Gilbert O'Sullivan

If I gave up the seat I’d been saving

For some elderly lady or man

Am I being a good boy, am I your pride and joy?

Mother please tell me, please say I am

And if while in the course of my duty

I perform an unfortunate take

Would you punish me so unbelievably so?

Mother please tell me, please say «I ache»

This feeling inside me could never deny me

The right to be wrong if I choose

The best feeling I get from just placing a bet

Is to lose

Nothing old, nothing new, nothing ventured

Nothing gained, nothing stillborn 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?

'Cause today

Nothing rhymed
