Nowhere Man
"I was just sitting, trying to think of a song, and I thought of myself sitting there, doing nothing and getting nowhere. Once I'd thought of that, it was easy. No, I remember now, I'd actually stopped trying to think of something. Nothing would come. I was cheesed off and went for a lie down. Then I thought of myself as 'Nowhere Man'-sitting in his nowhere land'." John Lennon
He's a real Nowhere Man
sitting in his Nowhere Land
making all his Nowhere plans for nobody
Doesn't have a point of view
knows not where he's going to
isn't he a bit like you and me?
Nowhere Man please listen
you don't know what you're missing
Nowhere Man, the world is at your command
He's as blind as he can be
just sees what he wants to see
Nowhere Man can you see me at all?
Nowhere Man don't worry
take you time don't hurry
leave it all till somebody else
lends you a hand.
Doesn't have a point of view
knows not where he's going to
isn't he a bit like you and me?
Nowhere Man please listen
you don't know what you're missing
Nowhere Man the world is at your command
He's a real Nowhere Man
sitting in his Nowhere Land
making all his Nowhere plans for nobody
Making all his Nowhere plans for nobody
Making all his Nowhere plans for nobody
