This could have been about a lot of things but it's not
  So don't stop and try to look for the message
  The world moves and it don't ask why
  Your kids will burn red hot like the fourth of July
    I could have told about what's in between the head and the hand
  But you wouldn't understand
  You heard the story of the rise and the fall
  But this time I swear it's not about anything at all
    This ain't a song about nuthin'
  This ain't a song about nuthin' at all
  This ain't a song about about anyone or anything
    This could have been about so many things but it's not
  So don't waste time and look for the meaning
  You heard so many things you couldn't recall
  But this time I swear it's not about anything at all
    This ain't a song about nuthin'
  This ain't a song about nuthin' at all
  This ain't a song about about anyone or anything
