Give You Nothing (Tom Clement)

hey, everybody's looking but they never can see

all the angst, corruption and the dishonesty

think about the times and places you've never known

you're a manswarm atom and yet you're alone

so I give you me

I give you nothing!

so you've got a place that you can call your own

but you make a habit of carrying the stone

look around and ask someone if you're alive

you're a sidewalk cipher speaking prionic jive

so I give you me

I give you nothing!

respectable, despicable it seems all the same

now we realize that we have nothing to say

if you're reserve is weak

audacity complete

ask yourself again "do I deserve much from them?"
