Lyrics

I've been looking all over trying to find a place to lay my head I used to have a house in the south now it's hers instead I thought I had a friend I was knocking on his door Trying to remind him what friends are for but I think he's dead I saw his neighbor on the front porch looking pretty stoned His dog was in the backyard chewing on a bone But there's nobody home There wasn't nobody home I saw a church with a sign it was open so I stepped inside It said double your misery back if you ain't satisfied I thought this deal can't last I better cash in quick Get it all done before I get too sick to find my way outside I saw a saint with his mouth open carved out of stone A preacher with his mouth shut staring at his phone But there's nobody home There wasn't nobody home I saw a big white house down on Pennsylvania Avenue I said open up the gate this can't wait and they said who are you Yeah and I said I was a citizen trying to cut a deal On a Russian unicycle with a missing wheel They let me through I saw a clown with a comb over trying to float a loan To the CIA while he tweeted on his phone But there's nobody home There wasn't nobody home It's getting hard to maintain connections in a personal way Everybody wants to text me 'cause they ain't got nothing to say Yeah believe me when I tell you it's like being alone Hanging out with numbers in a cyber zone Yeah you pay to play It'll drive you crazy right around the bend Pretty soon you're talking to yourself again And there ain't nobody home There ain't nobody home It'll drive you crazy right around the bend Pretty soon you're talking to yourself again And there ain't nobody home There ain't nobody home
