Good For Nothing

Eurythmics

He works so hard with no holidays 
but all his clothes are tailor-made 
his mother said son 
"you've got it made" 
"well you had it made" 


"yesterday" 
but now it's all for nothing 
good for nothing 

he goes to bed 
with a lava lamp 
beds full of books 
hair still damp 
his father said son 
"do well at camp" 
"you'll be a champ" 
"not a tramp" 
"not a good for nothing" 
"all or nothing" 

but I was a cocky sod 
and Johnny was a northern mod 
and we ruled the world 
I wore a velvet cloak 
it looked like a fucking joke 
but it pulled the girls 

I got a job on a market stall 
we sold Roxy Music 
the one with Jerry Hall 
my stepfather said son 
"you've got it all" 
"so just have a ball" 
"until you fall into nothing" 
"it's good to be nothing" 

but I was a cheeky git 
and Johnny nearly had a fit 
when I stole his guitar 
I found a new place to stay 

and a hippy who could teach me to play 
so I could be a big star 
then I was on the BBC 
Johnny looking that must be fun 
I wore a tartan suit 
I thought I looked pretty cute 
but now I think what a cunt!
