lyrics

Nothing's Going On
(Shawn Harris, Miles Hurwitz, the Matches)

I'm older than I've ever been
I'm older than I've ever been
but I'm younger than I'll ever be again
either I been missing something
or there's nothing going on
so much nothing going on
what the hell is going on?
either I been missing something
or nothing's been going on
so much nothing going on

I'm more broke than I've ever been
yeah, I'm more broke than I've ever been
but my purse is fatter than she'll ever be again
either all has been for no reason
or they're all putting me on
are you all putting me on?
what the hell is going on?
either all has been for no reason
or you're all putting me on

either someone shot the Duke
or I'm talking scrambled eggs
either I been let down easy
or these shoes done stole my legs

I'm wiser than I've ever been
I'm wiser than I've ever been
but more full of it
full of it
more full of shit than I'll ever be again
either I been lying less often
or I'm getting skilled at being wrong
yeah, I'm getting good at being wrong
what the hell is going on?
either I been lying less often
or I'm getting skilled at being wrong
and they're all putting me on
and there's nothing going on
what the hell is going on?
either I been missing something
or nothing.
