He never went nowhere just stayed in his town
made no promises let nobody down.
He wished for the Summer looked out the window
watching the world go by through the rain and the snow.

[Refrão]
He was the man,
the man who did nothing
He did nothing at all.

Read a book about Egypt,
saw a film about Rome,
made a lot of plans then just stayed at home.
He wished for the Summer looked out the window,
watching the world go by through the rain and the snow.
