Emptiness, 1970

I got nothing to do right now,
Maybe think about Chairman Mao,
There seems to be nothing in this land,
Nothing to hold in my hand,
I got nothing to do right now,
I guess I'll make out somehow.

Some people always say,
That our country is not okay,
I agree with them one hundred percent,
Our morals are awfully bent,
Some people always say,
Let's not work, let us play.

After a while I'll cry,
Then after that I'll die,
I wish people would open their eyes and see
What the world should be,
After a while I'll cry,
While listening to my hi-fi.

Now I have my chance,
Let's get together and dance
For all the gifts we have received,
Before we all leave,
Now I have my chance,
I think I'm going into a trance.
