Post office clerks put up signs saying position closed |
| [00:13.72] |

Janitors padlock the gates |
| [00:23.58] |
For security guards to patrol |
| [00:26.21] |
|
| [00:27.27] |
And bachelors phone up their friends for a drink |
| [00:30.32] |
While the married ones turn on a chat show |
| [00:33.20] |
|
| [00:35.50] |
And they'll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow |
| [00:40.00] |
|
| [00:42.68] |
Gentlemen time please, you know we can't serve anymore |
| [00:46.72] |
|
| [00:48.97] |
Now the traffic lights change to stop, when there's nothing to go |
| [00:53.21] |
|
| [00:55.71] |
And by five o'clock everything's dead |
| [00:57.32] |
|
| [00:59.04] |
And every third car is a cab |
| [01:01.91] |
|
| [01:02.66] |
And ignorant people sleep in their beds |
| [01:05.79] |
Like the doped white mice in the college lab |
| [01:09.09] |
|

Close-circuit cameras in department stores |
| [01:48.20] |
Shoot the same movie every day |
| [01:50.57] |
|
| [01:51.20] |
And the stars of these films neither die nor get killed |
| [01:54.69] |
Just survive constant action replay |
| [01:58.01] |
|
| [01:59.82] |
Nothing ever happens, nothing happens at all |
| [02:05.39] |
|
| [02:06.63] |
The needle returns to the start of the song |
| [02:09.82] |
And we all sing along like before |
| [02:12.31] |
|

And we'll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow |
| [02:17.38] |

Bill hoardings advertise products that nobody needs |
| [02:47.77] |
|
| [02:50.39] |
While Angry from Manchester writes to complain about |
| [02:53.90] |
All the repeats on TV |
| [02:56.71] |
|
| [02:57.34] |
And computer terminals report some gains |
| [03:00.52] |
On the values of copper and tin |
| [03:03.39] |
While American businessmen snap up Van Goghs |
| [03:07.37] |
For the price of a hospital wing |
| [03:10.06] |
|
| [03:12.37] |
Nothing ever happens, nothing happens at all |
| [03:17.98] |
|
| [03:19.42] |

Nothing ever happens, nothing happens at all |
| [03:31.01] |

They'll burn down the synagogues at six o'clock |
| [03:35.56] |

And we'll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow. |
