Billy Bragg - No One Knows Nothing Anymore Lyrics

Deep down in the underground
Atoms spinning round and round
Scientists monitor readings
Searching for the Holy Grail
The particle or at least the tail
Of the one that gives the universe its meaning

But what if there's nothing, no big answer to find
What if we're just passing through time

No one knows nothing anymore
Nobody really knows the score
Nobody knows anything
Let's break it down and start again

What happens when the markets drop
If the numbers really don't add up
Everyone seeks the safe heaven
And as they contemplate their ruin
The self proclaimed smartest people in the room
Are trying very hard not to sound craven

But what if there's nothing, no put of gold to find
Only the blind leading the blind

No one knows nothing anymore
Nobody really knows the score
Seems nobody knows anything
Let's break it down and start again

Let's stop pretending we can manage our way out of here
Let's stop defending the indefensible
Let's stop relying on the lecturing of the experts
Whose spin just make our plight incomprehensible
High up on a mountain top
Somebody with a skinned crop is thinking deep thoughts for us all
Serenity is all around, bet if you listen you can hear the sound
Of one head being banged against the wall
What if our ancestors had stayed up in the trees
Would we still be weighed down by these worries

No one knows nothing anymore
Nobody really knows the score
Seems nobody knows anything
Let's break it down and start again
