TALE OF NOTHING

Tell me there's another angry angel
Waiting in the wings
After all the sympathetic trouble
Pulling on the strings
Could it be another bad decision
Brought it all to here
Nothing like the morning's inner vision
Seeing something clear

   Tell the tale of nothing for so long
   Tell the tale of nothing's wrong

Tell me there's another longshot loser
Waiting on the fight
Looking for the television preacher
To tell him it's alright
Could have been a second motion passing
Brought it all to bear
Nothing ever tells the tale of nothing
When it's everywhere

    Tell the tale of nothing for so long
    Tell the tale of nothing's wrong

      And the feet running sideways can't get out of the show
      Temporary feelings till you have to let 'em go
      False front bravado when she's forty below
      The time has come to go don'tcha know, don'tcha know

Tell me there's another minute wasted
Looking for a clue
Technical disruption in her vision
All tied up in you
Could have been the thing I always wanted
Could have been a break
Nothing ventured nothing put together
Just a big mistake

   Tell the tale of nothing oh so clear
   Tell the tale there's nothing here.
