The Smiths - William, It Was Really Nothing Lyrics

The Smiths Lyrics

"William, It Was Really Nothing"

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
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

William, William it was really nothing
William, William
