Nobody Home

I've been looking all over trying to find a place to lay my head

I used to have a house in the south now it's hers instead

I thought I had a friend I was knocking on his door

Trying to remind him what friends are for but I think he's dead

I saw his neighbor on the front porch looking pretty stoned

His dog was in the backyard chewing on a bone

But there's nobody home

There wasn't nobody home

I saw a church with a sign it was open so I stepped inside

It said double your misery back if you ain't satisfied

I thought this deal can't last I better cash in quick

Get it all done before I get too sick to find my way outside

I saw a saint with his mouth open carved out of stone

A preacher with his mouth shut staring at his phone

But there's nobody home

There wasn't nobody home

I saw a big white house down on Pennsylvania Avenue

I said open up the gate this can't wait and they said who are you

Yeah and I said I was a citizen trying to cut a deal

On a Russian unicycle with a missing wheel

They let me through

I saw a clown with a comb over trying to float a loan

To the CIA while he tweeted on his phone

But there's nobody home

There wasn't nobody home

It's getting hard to maintain connections in a personal way

Everybody wants to text me 'cause they ain't got nothing to say

Yeah believe me when I tell you it's like being alone

Hanging out with numbers in a cyber zone

Yeah you pay to play

It'll drive you crazy right around the bend

Pretty soon you're talking to yourself again

And there ain't nobody home

There ain't nobody home

It'll drive you crazy right around the bend

Pretty soon you're talking to yourself again

And there ain't nobody home

There ain't nobody home
