I was on a TV show
that everybody said
would change the course of my life that night
by the time I went to bed
tinkling glass and candlelight
your look of tenderness
I was full of cozy hope
sweet taste of success
it was a big nuthin`
you don`t have to cross the street
when you see me comin`
too much trouble
so the the love we think is lost
things that never happened
stranger
it was a big nuthin`
late last night we argued
when you weren`t there
all o` my disappointment
screamed into the air
just about to fall into
the deep hole that I dug
saw myself ascending (pretending)
with a shovel and a shrug
it was a big nuthin`
I guess I just never knew how big nuthin` could be
