Violent Femmes - Happy New Year

Good For / At Nothing

I can't do nothing for anybody anymore thank God
I can't do nothing for no nobody no no more thank God
I once did something
for some somebody
but what for
ask God

Now I ran for something
any everybody
on the floor
oh God

Tell me what are you good for
are good for nothing
Is that what you're good for
aren't you good at something
Yes, that's what I'm good for
I am good at something
That's exactly what I'm good for
I am good for nothing

I can't do nothing for anybody anymore thank God

I can't do nothing for no nobody no no more thank God

I once did something
for some somebody
but what for
ask God

Now I ran for something
any everybody
on the floor
oh God

I tell you that it's something and it's something that is nothing, well

I tell you that it's nothing and it's nothing that is something, well

Samuel says... Samuel says... Samuel says...
