Ballad Of Big Nothing Songtext / Lyric

throwing candy out to the crowd dragging down the main the helpless little thing with the dirty mouthwho's always got something to sayyou're sitting around at home now waiting for your brother to call
I saw him down at the alley
having had enough of it all

said you can do what you want to whenever you want to
you can do what you want to there's no one to stop you

all spit and spite you're up all night and down every day
a tired man with only hours to go just waiting to be taken away
getting in to the back of a car for candy from some stranger
watching the parade with pinpoint eyes full of smoldering anger

you can do what you want to whenever you want to
you can do what you want to there's no one to stop you
now you can do what you want to whenever you want to
do what you want to whenever you want to
do what you want to whenever you want tothough it doesn't mean a thing, big nothing
