He doesn't make shoes or design a new shirt   Or take photographs but no one gets hurts   And he doesn't look trendy like guys in magazines   You won't see him at parties, he's not the face behind the scene      He makes nothing   He's the nothing maker   He's the maker of nothing   He's the nothing maker      And he doesn't paint pictures or write poetry   Or act on a stage for others to see   And he don't expect much Santa Claus knows   'Cause he doesn't make list of toys and new clothes      He makes nothing   He's the nothing maker   He's the maker of nothing   He's the nothing maker      Everyone's chasing a reason to live   Mostly they take more than they give   The succeeder justifies why he needs more than the rest   He believes his own lies and thinks he's the best      My guy doesn't make movies to suit an audience's whim   He lives by a code known only to him   And he doesn't make money to buy watches and cars   'Cause there's no time and no place to go   For a man who has nothing to show      He makes nothing   He's the nothing maker   He's the maker of nothing   He's the nothing maker
