FPost office clerks put up signs saying position clDmosed
FAnd secretaries turn off typewriters and put on their cDmoats
JBbanitors padlock the gFates
For sCecurity guards to paBbtrol
And bBbachelors phone up their frFiends for a drink
While the mCarried ones turn on a cBbhat show
And thFey'll all be lonely tonBbight and lonely tomForrow
Gentlemen time please, you know we can't serve anymore
Now the traffic lights change to stop, when there's nothing to go
And by five o'clock everything's dead
And every third car is a cab
And ignorant people sleep in their bed
Like the doped white mice in the college lab
NFothing ever hBbappens, nFothing happens at Bball
The nDmeedle returns to the stBbart of the song
And we Call sing along like befBbore
And we'll Fall be lonely tonBbight and lonely tomForrow
Telephone exchanges click while there's nobody there
The Martians could land in the carpark and no one would care
Close-circuit cameras in department stores
Shoot the same movie everyday
And the stars of these films neither die nor get killed
Just survive constant action replay
Nothing ever happens, nothing happens at all
The needle returns to the start of the song
And we all sing along like before
And we'll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow
Bill hoardings advertise products that nobody needs
While angry from Manchester writes to complain about
All the repeats on TV
And computer terminals report some gains
In the values of copper and tin
While American businessmen snap up Van Goghs
For the price of a hospital wing
Nothing ever happens, nothing happens at all
The needle returns to the start of the song
And we all sing along like before
Nothing ever happens, nothing happens at all
They'll burn down the synagogues at six o'clock
And we'll all go along like before
And we'll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow
