Nothing Ever Happens Round Here
Chris Deburgh

She was a girl from a one horse town

The only place for miles around

Cutting hair in the modern style

Putting in the nine to five


But, every night it was the same old dream

On the cover of a magazine

She looked good but it could never come true

'Cos nothing ever happens 'round here

Nothing ever happens 'round here


She had a boyfriend in the town

He spent his days just messing around

With stick shifts and steering wheels

Motorbikes and automobiles


And every night it was the same old thing

Meet the boys for a couple of drinks

Shoot pool and talk about girls

And nothing ever happens 'round here

Nothing ever happens 'round here


They said, nothing, no nothing, no nothing

Nothing ever happens 'round here

Nothing, no nothing, no nothing

Nothing ever happens 'round here


One day in a local bar

She heard a movie man was looking for a star

And everybody in the whole damn town

Got the call to come on down


And when she walked into the room

Every heart went boom, boom, boom, ‽Who's that girl?”

She's exactly what we're looking for

But nothing ever happens 'round here


Nothing ever happens 'round here


They said, nothing, no nothing, no nothing

Nothing ever happens 'round here

Nothing, no nothing, no nothing

Nothing ever happens 'round here


And so she took a screen test

No doubt that she was the best

The camera fell in love with her

Before she knew it she was on the way

To make her dreams come true


Now she living in Hollywood

And everything is looking good

She thinks about the folks back home

And her boyfriend all alone, but


Every night it's still the same old thing

Meet the boys for a couple of drinks

Shoot pool and talk about girls

And nothing ever happens 'round here

Nothing ever happens 'round here


They said, nothing, no nothing, no nothing

Nothing ever happens 'round here

Nothing, no nothing, no nothing

Nothing ever happens 'round here


Nothing, no nothing, no nothing

Nothing ever happens 'round here

Nothing, no nothing, no nothing

Nothing ever happens 'round here
