Nothing Ever Happens

	  		    -  

  
F                                                 Dm 
Post office clerks put up signs saying position closed 
F                                                      Dm 
And secretaries turn off typewriters and put on their coats 
 Bb                   F 
Janitors padlock the gates 
     C                   Bb 
For security guards to patrol 
     Bb                        F 
And bachelors phone up their friends for a drink 
           C                      Bb 
While the married ones turn on a chat show 
  
      F                      Bb                 F 
And they'll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow 
  
Gentlemen time please, you know we can't serve anymore 
Now the traffic lights change to stop, when there's nothing to go 
And by five o'clock everything's dead 
And every third car is a cab 
And ignorant people sleep in their bed 
Like the doped white mice in the college lab 
  
  
 F            Bb       F                 Bb 
Nothing ever happens, nothing happens at all 
     Dm                     Bb 
The needle returns to the start of the song 
       C                      Bb 
And we all sing along like before 
  
          F                Bb                 F 
And we'll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow 
  
Telephone exchanges click while there's nobody there 
The Martians could land in the carpark and no one would care 
Close-circuit cameras in department stores 
Shoot the same movie everyday 
And the stars of these films neither die nor get killed 
Just survive constant action replay 
  
Nothing ever happens, nothing happens at all 
The needle returns to the start of the song 
And we all sing along like before 
  
And we'll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow 
  
Bill hoardings advertise products that nobody needs 
While angry from Manchester writes to complain about 
All the repeats on TV 
And computer terminals report some gains 
In the values of copper and tin 
While American businessmen snap up Van Goghs 
For the price of a hospital wing 
  
Nothing ever happens, nothing happens at all 
The needle returns to the start of the song 
And we all sing along like before 
Nothing ever happens, nothing happens at all 
They'll burn down the synagogues at six o'clock 
And we'll all go along like before 
  
And we'll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow
