Nothing Tonight by Trout Fishing In America Lyrics

(K. Grimwood/E. Idlet)
Yeah now, ringin' the bells, close out the register
You wouldn't find a thought if you opened my head
I don't like the words but I sure love a melody
Oughta be asleep but I'm not headed for my bed

Chorus: I'm don't even know how this whole thing got started
We're already here but we never departed--
Don't want to be silent, don't want to be quiet
So I'm singin' my songs about nothin' tonight
Just singin' my songs about nothin' tonight
Yeah now, checkin' the mail, special delivery
Maybe I won, but I really don't care;
Too many smiles to get bent outa shape
A trip to a dumpster and it's not even there

Chorus:
I got nothin', it don't bother me
I got nothin', so don't bother me
No!
Yeah now, ringin' the bells, close out the register
You wouldn't find a thought if you opened my head
I don't like the words but I sure love a melody
Oughta be asleep but I'm not headed for my bed
Chorus: (2x)
