Lyrics

Someone found the future as a statue
In a fountain
At attention looking backward in a
Pool of water
Wishes with a blue
Songbird on his shoulder
Who keeps singing over everything

Everything means nothing to me
Nothing to me
Nothing to me

I picked up the song and found my picture
In the paper
The reflection in the water shouted
"Are your men still trying to salute
People from a time when he was
Everything he's supposed to be?"

Everything means nothing to me
Nothing to me
Nothing to me
