Something For Nothing
Assumed there was nothing, with not much to come
Been counting on lovers and prayed they're 'The One'
Your calling had missed you, you fell into despair
You were up for the fight or whatever gets you there
Falling apart and reeling around
You're looking for something that you've never found
You had a little taste and you're left wanting more
You got it for nothing, what will you sell it for?
Uh, uh, uh, sell it for...
So you got out of London while you still had the edge
Left the haircuts behind you for due punishment
Immune to their ravings, not part of that scene
You were headed for some place that you'd never been
I had your back while you were making your stand
While all that good fortune fell into your hands
You had a little taste and you still want some more
You got it for nothing, what will you sell it for?
Sell, sell, sell, sell it all
The taking was easy and you gained so much ground
But the price of respect isn't measured in pounds
You still dish it out and yet you want more
You got it for nothing, what would you sell it for?
Ah, you gonna sell it all
You gonna sell it all
You gonna sell it all
While most had been working you took it with ease
You were young and good looking, been eating your greens?
Man, I couldn't help but fall into your trap
Whatever I gave you I'll now have it back
You were falling apart and reeling around
Looking for something that you never found
You had a little a taste and you still want some more
You got it for nothing... Na, Na, Nah...
I had your back while you were making your stand
And all of that fortune, it slipped through your hands
You got a little taste and still you want more
You got it for nothing, what will you sell it for?
You gonna sell it all
Uh, uh, you gonna sell it all
You gonna sell it all
Oh you're gonna it sell it all...
Been counting on lovers and prayed they're 'The One'
Your calling had missed you, you fell into despair
You were up for the fight or whatever gets you there
Falling apart and reeling around
You're looking for something that you've never found
You had a little taste and you're left wanting more
You got it for nothing, what will you sell it for?
Uh, uh, uh, sell it for...
So you got out of London while you still had the edge
Left the haircuts behind you for due punishment
Immune to their ravings, not part of that scene
You were headed for some place that you'd never been
I had your back while you were making your stand
While all that good fortune fell into your hands
You had a little taste and you still want some more
You got it for nothing, what will you sell it for?
Sell, sell, sell, sell it all
The taking was easy and you gained so much ground
But the price of respect isn't measured in pounds
You still dish it out and yet you want more
You got it for nothing, what would you sell it for?
Ah, you gonna sell it all
You gonna sell it all
You gonna sell it all

You had a little a taste and you still want some more
You got it for nothing... Na, Na, Nah...

And all of that fortune, it slipped through your hands
You got a little taste and still you want more
You got it for nothing, what will you sell it for?
You gonna sell it all
Uh, uh, you gonna sell it all
You gonna sell it all
Oh you're gonna it sell it all...
