The Mighty Mighty Bosstones - Closer to Nowhere lyrics

Artist: The Mighty Mighty Bosstones

album: While We're At It


He slammed a deck of cards on the table wicked hard
And said "Feel free to count them, if you want"
I had better things to do, and knew there'd be 52
I said "I'm good thanks," acting nonchalant
He went on from there
He waved them in the air
A normal deck of playing cards he said
Pick one he barked at me but do not let me see it
I didn't pick a card, I left instead
Just a little bit closer to nowhere
A little more somewhere somehow
As close as can be, without actually being nowhere right now
A little bit closer to nowhere
A little more somewhere somehow
As close as can be, without actually being nowhere right now
She had a god's eye up on the beautiful bonsai,
She hung the rosary beads around the Buddha's neck
A dreamcatcher fell and rang a sacred
Bell, near the Hindu tapestry that was a wreck
I heard the bell toll when I struck the singing bowl
With a crystal that I found behind the chimes
Flipped through a copy of, "Eat, Pray,
Love" I didn't judge her, no I don't sometimes
Just a little bit closer to nowhere
A little more somewhere somehow
As close as can be, without actually being nowhere right now
A little bit closer to nowhere
A little more somewhere somehow
As close as can be, without actually being nowhere right now
You're nowhere right now to me
You're nowhere right now to me
Bonnie Blackstone and Monday moon beams
I dream of dragons and a rainbow of ice cream
Rockets' red glare and chemical warfare
You might be here, but you are nowhere
You are nowhere!
Just a little bit closer to nowhere
A little more somewhere somehow
As close as can be, without actually being nowhere right now
A little bit closer to nowhere
A little more somewhere somehow
As close as can be, without actually being nowhere right now
