Turn on the TV Turn on the radio. Turn down that sound Turn down that sound Open the curtains Open the windows. What's happening around What's happening around I'll do some washing I might go shopping I'm going downtown I'm going downtown Someone told me, "nothing happened today." I woke up late I had a headache I went back to sleep Go back to sleep I stood there waiting Waiting for something There wasn't a thing Not even one thing Someone told me, "nothing happened today." Harry Hooper living in No. 10 Bought a toupee and glued it to his head "It looks very natural," everybody said. But then his wife said "Toupee, isn't that a French word?" And Harry said, "Ole." She said, "That's a Spanish word." And he said "O.K., can't tell the difference these days." I watched TV Cos I wanted to see The late news at 10 It came on and then She shuffled her papers She swivelled in her chair She looked up and said The weather was fair And then it turned cold It started to rain Pouring with rain. Some people died Some people were born And some stayed the same And some went insane Tomorrow's Wednesday Today was Tuesday And this is the date March 28th It was the morning Then afternoon And then the night came And then the night came Oh...and someone told me, "Nothing happened today." Yes, someone told me, "Nothing happened today." It happened today. *taken from the album entitled "The Fine Art Of Surfacing" *Written by Bob Geldof
