If I give up the seat I've been saving  To some elderly lady or man  Am I being a good boy  Am I your pride and joy  Mother please if your pleased say I am  And if while in the course of my duty  I perform an unfortunate take  Would you punish me so, unbelievably so  Never again will I make that mistake  This feeling inside me could never deny me  The right to be wrong if I choose  And this pleasure I get  >From say winning a bet  Is to lose  When I'm drinking my Bonaparte Shandy  Eating more than enough apple pies  Will I glance at my screen and see real human beings  Starve to death -  Right in front of my eyes  Nothing old, nothing new, nothing ventured  Nothing gained, nothing still-born or lost  Nothing further than proof nothing wilder than youth  Nothing older than time nothing sweeter than wine  Nothing physically, recklessly, hopelessly blind  Nothing I couldn't say  Nothing why 'cos today  Nothing rhymed
