Post office clerks put up signs
Saying, 'Position Closed'
And secretaries turn off typewriters
And put on their coats
Janitors padlock the gates
For security guards to patrol
And bachelors phone up their friends for a drink
While the married ones turn on a chat show
And theyll all be lonely tonight
And lonely tomorrow
Gentlemen, time please
You know we cant serve anymore
Now the traffic lights change to 'Stop'
When theres nothing to go
And by five Oclock everythings dead
And every third car is a cab
And ignorant people sleep in their beds
Like the doped white mice in the college lab
And nothing ever happens
Nothing happens at all
The needle returns to the start of the song
And we all sing along like before
And well all be lonely tonight
And lonely tomorrow
Telephone exchanges click
While theres nobody there
The Martians could land in the car park
And no one would care
Close-circuit cameras in department stores
Shoot the same video every day
And the stars of these films neither die nor get killed
Just survive constant action replay
And nothing ever happens
Nothing happens at all
The needle returns to the start of the song
And we all sing along like before
And well all be lonely tonight
And lonely tomorrow
And bill hoardings advertise products
That nobody needs
While angry from Manchester
Writes to complain about all the repeats on T.V.
And computer terminals report some gains
On the values of copper and tin
While American businessmen snap up Van Goghs
For the price of a hospital wing
And nothing ever happens
Nothing happens at all
The needle returns to the start of the song
And we all sing along like before
And nothing ever happens
Nothing happens at all
Theyll burn down the synagogues at six oclock
And well all go along like before
And well all be lonely tonight
And lonely tomorrow
