lyrics

CHORUS:
This song's about nothing, but I'll tell you something
The thing about nothing, it'll always be free
So if you're doing nothing, how about singing
This song about nothing, come sing it with me

I used to see a girl who didn't do nothing
But go on and on, on how life's so unfair
One day I told her "It's over between us
I'm sorry my dear, but there's just nothing there"

I often remember what a wise man once said
He said "you just can't take nothing with you when you're dead
So stop your collecting, stop carrying on
And your friends won't have nothing to throw away when you're gone"

CHORUS

Come closer me brother, you might want to hear this
I'll tell you the secret of life's little game
There's nothing finer than breathing and dreaming
And those who've forgotten have no one to blame

CHORUS
It goes…

Don't say nothing
Unless you've got something to say
Don't take nothing
Without asking first if it's okay
Don't wait for nothing
'Cause nothing is just what you'll get, if you sit there and wait

If you've ever thought that your life don't mean nothing
That no one would miss you, if you disappeared
Well just think again about how you fit in, son
Without you around, well there's nothing much here

CHORUS
It goes…

Singer/Songwriter/Pianist/Producer/Engineer and many more things to many more people, Allister still can't decide what he wants to be when he grows up. His music can perhaps be described as modern folk, since it contains rich storytelling and imagery, but it might be mistaken for Smooth Jazz, Roots or AC. You decide.

Any way you describe it, Allister's music will reach deep within and satisfy ... more
