• Nothing Rhymed (live in Dublin, 2002)

So... I spent the last evening in a leather bar on the Liffey,
and I met four wonderful bowsies who I'd like to introduce to.
Over yonder is Boz!
Over hither is Gary!
Over yonder is Deano!
And you once knew as him as Lassie, but now he is Alain!
And I am for now Gilbert O'Sullivan.

NOTHING RHYMED
(Gilbert O'Sullivan)

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 you're 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 the 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.
