"Nothing Works" lyrics

What's the point, muffin?
I don't believe in nothin' anymore
You tell me I don't relate to the kids no more
Now, I feel like I'm letting them down

What's the point runnin'?
Not like I'm up-and-comin' anymore
So what if they hear me on my bathroom floor?
I'm sure they're big enough now

But, of course, I'll re-implore you
On the kind of nation that we have
You've either been on your own too long
Or it just feels like that (It just feels like that)

So tell me if I'm stuck or movin' on up
That's a conversation to be had
Have I been livin' on my own too long
Or does it just feel like that?

When I sing the song and you didn't like the verse
I try to fix myself but nothing works
I sing the song and you didn't like the words
I try to fix myself but nothing
Nothing

What's the point, Martin?
Don't you be startin' anymore
They told me I was the fat cat kid for a minute
But they're the ones who are doin' us proud

Well, what's the point runnin'?
Not like I'm up-and-comin' anymore
So what if they hear me singin' "I love war"?
I'm sure they're big enough now

But, of course, I'll re-implore you
On the kind of nation that we have
You've either been on your own too long
Or it just feels like that (It just feels like that)

So tell me if I'm stuck or movin' up
Now that's a conversation to be had
Have I been talkin' to myself all along
Or do I just sound like that?

When I sing the song and you didn't like the verse
I try to fix myself but nothing works
I sing the song and you didn't like the words
I try to fix myself but nothing works

I feel wrong, I feel rehearsed
I try to fix myself but nothing works
I sing the song and you didn't like the words
I try to fix myself but

Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing works

But, of course, I'll re-implore you
On the kind of nation that we have
You've either been on your own too long
Or it just feels like that (It just feels like that)
So, tell me if we're stuck or movin' up
Now that's a conversation to be had
Have I been talkin' to myself all along
Or do I just sound like that?

When I sing the song and you didn't like the verse
I try to fix myself but nothing works
I sing the song and you didn't like the words
I try to fix myself but nothing works

I feel wrong, I feel rehearsed
I try to fix myself but nothing works
I sing the song and you didn't like the words
I try to fix myself but

Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing...
