Once knew a girl by the name of Emily
Who I would go and visit on the downtown seat
She promised me love but it didn't come free
And I don't mean money but the way she'd be like

"It makes no sense to me why
You can't just stay with me tonight
You're the apple of my eye"
S... like that so I never went back but

Now they've come to take me away
What have I done to be so afraid
Staring down the barrel of a gun

And lady I don't know you, you don't know me any better
Better listen what I'm sayin, cause this means
Nothing at all, nothing at all, nothing at all
Lady tell me the truth, can we trust to the letter?
Better listen what I'm saying, cause this means
Nothing at all, nothing at all, nothing at all

Check it
Always known a girl by the name of Christine
Who I've been macking on since the age of 19
She could lead me on like a border collie
But I still keep coming like I hit the ground runnin' sayin'

"I'll do my hair up real fly
I'll wear brand names that you like
You're the apple of my eye"
S... like that but she never called back so

Now they've come to take me away
What have I done to be so afraid
To turn her off like a television

And lady I wanna know you, don't you wanna know me better
Better listen what I'm saying, or is this
Nothing at all, nothing at all, nothing at all
Lady I'm telling the truth, trust me to the letter
Better listen to what I'm saying, or is this
Nothing at all, nothing at all, nothing at all

Guess it was something I said
That put those thoughts in your head
Guessing you're better off dead
If you can't make me notice

Guess it was something you said
That put those thoughts in my head
Guessing I'm better off dead
If I can't make you notice

All in all the damage is done
Why can't we turn it off and on like a television
Now I'm staring down the barrel of a gun
Because I can't make you notice a reaction

And lady I don't know you, you don't know me any better
Better listen what I sayin' cause this means
Nothing, nothing, nothing at all
Lady tell me the truth can we trust to the letter?
Gotta listen what I'm saying, cause this means
Nothing at all, nothing at all, nothing at all

Oh... nothing at all
Oh...
