VERSE1
Well I was standin in the checkout
For what seemed like half a day
I gave the clerk the extra change
When I finally got to pay
He stared at what I gave him
Didnt know just what to do
I started to explain it
suddenly I knew
|
CHORUS
Well there aint nobody home
Aint nobody home
The lights are on but theyre all gone
Youre standing there alone
Elevators stopped
And its no where near the top
You shouldve known Youre on your own
There aint nobody home
|
VERSE2
So you go into McDonalds
Just to get a bite to eat
The young and old that work there
Well they really can be sweet
They serve you with a smile
But then as you turn to go
You open up the bag they gave you
Suddenly you know

VERSE3
So you have to use the restroom
When youre filling up your car
You run inside and ask the man
To point to where they are
You run back out to where he said
You really got to pee
Upon the door you find a sign
See attendant for the key

(REPEAT CHORUS -THEN CHANGE KEY TO C)

VERSE4
So youre a Senator whos copped a plea
And regretted ever since
Youd like to take it back
So you can prove your innocence
You know that youre not guilty
You dont understand at all
Whats wrong with playing footsies
With the cop in the next stall
|
(REPEAT CHORUS -THEN CHANGE KEY TO D)
|
VERSE5
So Im playing and Im singing
For my friends and family
I feel good just like I should
Theyre listening to me
Everything is just fine
Until I start this verse
Maybe I should stop now
Before I make it worse
