Nobody |
I go armed to the teeth and I wander the streets |
Confirming my worst suspicions |
Lie awake in my bed disguising my dread |
As concern for the human condition |
I’m a God-fearing man but I get blood on my hands |
And I deal with the public and I do what I can |
To keep these thoughts of a plague at bay |
The streets are filled with boys all crazy in the noise |
Every single one a dupe of advertising ploys |
All blown out on dust and high-caliber toys |
And they keep me in terror and they keep me employed |
And I’m nobody |
I am nobody |
A federal team arrived at the scene |
To impede my investigation |
The president beamed to every TV screen |
Good news about the state of the nation |
No rumors of war, not like times before |
So why do I sleep behind a bulletproof door |
Drinking my fear of the day away |
My precinct crew has come unglued |
And those little envelopes keep coming on through |
I talk too much and I drink too much |
But I’m paying my mortgage and paying my dues |
And I’m nobody |
I am nobody |
I got out of the army, guess I didn’t know what to do |
Came home, joined the police force |
I was still a young man; |
seen too many movies |
So I asked for the gang squad |
Of course what I didn’t expect was seeing children lying dead |
And standing helpless on the side |
You ought to hear their mamas cry |
To nobody |
And everywhere I go I hear somebody say |
The drugs are brought in by the CIA |
So who am I working for, who do I protect? |
Who do I talk to, there’s nowhere to connect |
And who am I? |
I’ll tell you who I am |
I am nobody |
