Hey... I knew there was a bunch of people over there, and I knew there was a bunch of people over there, thought I'd say hi, hi. We're not used to playing such big rock concerts don't accuse of rock bystanding, we just wanted to say
(rant)
All I ever wanted was everything and all i got was shit
All I ever wanted was everything and all i got was shit
Nothing can be taken from me that hasn't already been taken
Nothing can be stripped from me that has not been taken
And there's nothing to say that has not been said
There's nothing you can do that hasn't already been done
Straight through the fuckin' heart
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme nothing, oh
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme nothing
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme nothing
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme nothing
Ahhh-arrr.... ahhh-arrr... fuckin' cartoon character
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme nothing
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme nothing
And what have you got when you have nothing? Nothing
Cut the shit
What have you got when you don't feel anything? Nothing
What are you gonna get when you want something? Nothing
Straight through the heart
Hey wait, cut the shit, cut the shit
I see this guy right here he's got his outlook changed, first he was giving me the finger, now he's giving me the peace sign. Obviously a confused young man.
I tell you one thing, man, if you want a piece, fuck you
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme nothing
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme nothing
What have I got - nothing, what do I want - something
Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, NOTHING!!
