lyrics
We had a bike behind the garden shed
Dust off the cobwebs
And I pushed on
I had to get across two major roads
Yeah, that's pretty big
For a three-year-old
Point the bike towards my grandma's place
The surprise on her face
Was astounding
Although they wondered where my mother was
Probably because I was alone when they found me
It's all nothing
It's all nothing
It's all nothing now
We had a sea shell on the bathroom bench
My parents found it when
We were in Queensland
And when I knocked it down with my bath towel
The deafening sound
Made them both mad
I couldn't look at them in the eye
'Cause they'd see me cry
I was so scared
Instead I ran behind the garden shed
Dust off those cobwebs
And got out of there
It's all nothing
It's all nothing
It's all nothing now
Dust off the cobwebs
And I pushed on
I had to get across two major roads
Yeah, that's pretty big
For a three-year-old
Point the bike towards my grandma's place
The surprise on her face
Was astounding
Although they wondered where my mother was
Probably because I was alone when they found me
It's all nothing
It's all nothing
It's all nothing now
We had a sea shell on the bathroom bench
My parents found it when
We were in Queensland
And when I knocked it down with my bath towel
The deafening sound
Made them both mad
I couldn't look at them in the eye
'Cause they'd see me cry
I was so scared
Instead I ran behind the garden shed
Dust off those cobwebs
And got out of there
It's all nothing
It's all nothing
It's all nothing now
