Everything Means Nothing to Me

Elliott Smith

Someone found the future as a statue in a fountain 
At attention looking backward in a pool of water
Wishes with a blue songbird on his shoulder 
Who keeps singing over everything

Everything means nothing to me
Everything means nothing to me
Everything means nothing to me

I picked up the song and found my picture in the paper
The reflection in the water showed an iron man still 
Trying to salute people from a time when he was
Everything he's supposed to be

Everything means nothing to me
Everything means nothing to me
Everything means nothing to me
