William, It Was Really Nothing Lyrics

The song William, It Was Really Nothing is performed by The Smiths in the album named Best of 1 in the year 1992 .



The rain falls hard on a humdrum town
This town has dragged you down
Oh, the rain falls hard on a humdrum town
This town has dragged you down

Oh, no and everybody's got to live their life
And God knows I've got to live mine
God knows I've got to live mine

William, William, it was really nothing
William, William, it was really nothing
It was your life

How can you stay with a fat girl who'll say
Oh, would you like to marry me ?
And if you like you can buy the ring
She doesn't care about anything

Would you like to marry me ?
And if you like you can buy the ring
I don't dream about anyone except myself

Oh, William, William, it was really nothing
William, William, oh
