Yesterday 

The sky looked sweet 

When we dropped 

A big bomb at our feet 

And sometime soon 

We all might zoom 

To space and continue 

With another zoo 



Work and pace 

For paper face 

Spend it wisely 

And keep it safe 

Because the human race 

Is a non-stop race 

With too many trials 

But no real case 



Something about this second 

Something about this hour 

Take away the money 

Then the time becomes the power 

A moment just to swim 

And to shower and to sing 

And to brighten and to dim 

And to sleep and to wander in 



Nothing 

Oh sweet nothing 

Today we're doing nothing at all 



Yesterday 

I climbed a hill 

Then cycle down speedy 

On a great big wheel 

Feeling ill 

Laboured still 

Grinding and stressing 

In that giant mill 



Drove a car 

Stop and start 

Round and round in circles 

Never got too far 

Running barefoot 

On the hot hot tar 

'cause if you stop 

Then you burn 

Then your feet get scars 



Something about this instance 

Something about this minute 

Striving for the future 

But don't realise that we're in it 

A moment just to float 

To ponder and to dote 

To dry and to soak 

And to take a little toke of that 



Nothing 

Oh sweet nothing 

Today we're doing nothing at all
