Something from Nothing

Look at the dead man

Nothin' to no one

No one is coming

To take him away

He used to be somethin'

Now he's just nothin'

Nothin' but somethin'

That's takin' up space

But a wise man said

If you use your head

You can get yourself

Somethin' from nothin'

Somethin' from nothin' at all

Lift him up slowly

Try not to shake him

Don't wanna break him

Now into the box

Give him a rifle

Prop him up proud

Proud little dead man

The paradox

See the bad bad man

For a mere two bits you can

See the dead outlaw

Somethin' from nothin'

Somethin' from nothin' at all

He's not like he was before

Now I'm an entrepreneur

Death is a business to me

Comin' to you real dead outlaw

He's not like he was before

Now I'm an entrepreneur

Death is a business to me

Dead outlaw dead outlaw

Hey-yeah

He's not like he was before

Now I'm an entrepreneur

Death is a business to me

Dead outlaw dead outlaw

Yeah yeah

He's not like he was before

Now I'm an entrepreneur

Death is a business to me

And the lights go on

And the dead man lives

And they all come see

Somethin' from nothin'

Somethin' from nothin' at all
