When Something Stands For Nothing

(album: Picture Of Health - 1993)

When something stands for nothing
A detached memory
This one's about everything you don't think about until you sleep
This one's for nothing
And this one's for fun
This one's about
Rock n' roll and comic books and bubble gum

Ooh ooh ooh...

Well, each day offers something
Yeah, but none of it'll last
Unless you, ya take the reins, take em from the knight
Push the pawn right through the pass
And this one's for the silence
And the questions that it brings
And the smell of time and the reverence
And the possibilities

You double up the foreground
You put it on a slide
Inspect it with your perfect ways
Until it burns your eyes
And this one's for nothing
And this one's for fun
And this one's about
Rock n' roll and comic books and bubble gum
