William, It Was Really Nothing lyrics

The rain falls hard on a humdrum town

This town has dragged you down

Oh, the rain falls hard on a humdrum town

This town has dragged you down

Oh, oh

And everybody's got to live their life

And God knows I've got to live mine

God knows I've got to live mine

William, William, it was really nothing

William, William, it was really nothing

It was your life

How can you stay with a fat girl who'll say

"Oh, would you like to marry me?

And if you like, you can buy the ring"?

She doesn't care about anything

"Would you like to marry me?

And if you like, you can buy the ring"

I don't dream about anyone

Except myself

Ooh, William, William, it was really nothing

William, William, oh-oh-oh-oh
