Post office clerk puts up a sign saying "Position Closed"
And secretaries turn off typewriters and put on their coats
Janitors padlock the gates for security guards to patrol
And bachelors call up their friends for a drink
While the married ones turn on a chat show
And they'll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow

And 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

Telephone exchanges click while there's nobody there
The Martians could land in the car park and no one would care.
Closed circut cameras in department stores
Shoot the same movie every day
And the stars of these films neither die nor get killed
Just survive constant action replay

By five o'clock everything's dead
And every third car is a cab
Ignorant people sleep in their beds
Like the doped white mice in the college lab

And 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
