Nothing Happened Today - The Boomtown Rats

Turn on the TV

Turn on the radio

Turn down that sound

Turn down that sound

Open the curtains

Open the windows

What's happening around

What's happening around

I'll do some washing

I might go shopping

I'm going downtown

I'm going downtown

Someone told me

nothing happened today

Someone told me

nothing happened today

I woke up late

I had a headache

I went back to sleep

Go back to sleep

I stood there waiting

Waiting for something

There wasn't a thing

Not even one thing

Someone told me

nothing happened today

Someone told me

nothing happened today

Harry Hooper living in No 10

Bought a toupee and glued it to his head

It looks very natural everybody said

But then his wife said

Toupee isn't that a French word

And Harry said Ole

She said That's a Spanish verb

And he said OK

can't tell the difference these days

I watched ITV

I wanted to see

The late news at 10

It came on and then

She shuffled her papers

She swivelled in her chair

She looked up and said

The weather was fair

And then it turned cold

It started to rain

Pouring with rain

Tomorrow's Friday

Today is Tuesday

This is the date

March 28th

Some people died

Some people were born

And some stayed

And some went insane

It was the morning

Then afternoon

And then the night came

And then the night came

someone told me

Nothing happened today

Someone told me

Nothing happened today

Someone told me

Nothing happened today

Someone told me

Nothing happened

Someone told me

Nothing happened today

Someone told me

Nothing happened

It happened today
