[Verse]
Dm
All day walking, I ain't had nothing but a concrete hot head
Dm
Get a hot head I get the words wrong, get the meaning right with a left hook
Dm
Bunny in the foxhole, rabbit in the headlight, lamb in the lions den
Dm
I don't know why I am angry, I don't know why they hate me, I don't know why wild, wil' wind
[Chorus]
DmDbBbA
Instead I have nothing to be-lieve in, nothing to be dreaming, nothing to de-cide on
DmDbBbA
Only that I have nothing to i-magine, nothing to put time in, nothing there to choose from
DmDbBbA
Just that I have nothing
[Verse]
Dm
No one come, took me in at night, say I love you son, dearest to my heart my darling one
Dm
I'm a straydog walking with this ribcage showing and his tongue hanging out, foaming at the mouth
Dm
Blue eyed evil capitalist pig, hang that fucker in the big white wig
Dm
It's a street full of sheep screaming blue murder, a howlin' wolf at the big house door
[Chorus]
DmDbBbA
Because I have nothing, right outside your frontyard and the tyres screeching in the hot tar anger, hunger
DmDbBbA
To have nothing, no one saying please sir, no one saying yes ma'm, none of them that have understand
DmDbGm
That I want nothing, nothing but your car, wife, life, price, dignity, sanctuary
BbDmDbBbADmDbBbA
Nothing but your everything you god damn motherfucker
[Verse]
Dm
You thought you heard something on the way home, was that a rustle, was that my belly rumbling
Dm
Later on you think you see a shadow, by your front porch or maybe not though
Dm
And then a tap, tap, tap at the window, that's when your legs froze, my god's what's happening
Dm
Crack, crack, crack in the glass and now he's got the handle and now your front door is open
[Outro]
DmDbBbA
Say ya have nothing, thinking is he mad at me, will he hurt me, don't know is he just plain crazy
DmDbBbA
I have nothing and now he hit me and now he laugh at me and he stripped me naked
DmDbGm
I said I have nothing, now I see him all round laughing and he looked down saying that
Bb
I own you, I own you, I own you
