Nothing Much Of Anything

The Badless

Compositor: Bret Alexander / The Badlees

Youve got a right to be angry
Youve got a right to complain
But just being right
Aint gonna change anything

You want understanding
Without saying a word
You want admiration
Even though its undeserved

It aint no secret
Time took its toll
I cant believe it
Were gettin old

One of us should stand up
One of us should scream
One of us should step out
And say just what he means
One of us should say
Just what it is were fighting for
But no one says nothing much
Of anything no more

We all have defenses
And opinions to sell
We all have our methods
Of defending ourselves

But theres nothing as lifeless
As a tree that dont bend
Theres nothing as worthless
As a fair weathered friend

It aint no secret
Time took its toll
I cant believe it
Were gettin old

One of us should get up
One of us should say
One of us should get out
Of the other ones way
One of us should face up
To what no one can ignore
But no one does nothing much
Of anything no more

I am he as you are he
As you are me, but we disagree
Now it aint anything

And its a world full of anger
Its a world full of pain
Its a world full of people
Lookin for someone else to blame

But it dont make no difference
If it dont make no sense
cause the world goes on a changing
With or without our consent

It aint no secret
Time took its toll
I cant believe it
Were gettin old

If one of us was angry
If one of us was sad
If one of us was guilty
It might not be that bad
If one of us was anything
We might know something more
But no one is nothing much
Of anything no more
