Nobody loves us,
Nobody cares,
nobody picks us peaches and pears.
Nobody offers us candy and cokes,
Nobody listens and laughs at our jokes.
Nobody helps when we get in a fight,
Nobody does all our homework at night.
Nobody misses us,
Nobody cries,
Nobody thinks we’re wonderful guys.
So if you ask us who’s our best friend, in a wiz,
We’ll stand up and tell you Nobody is.
But yesterday night we got quite a scare,
We woke up and Nobody just wasn’t there.
We called out and reached for Nobody’s hand,
In the darkness where Nobody usually stands.
Then we poked through the house, in each cranny and nook,
But we found sombody each place that we looked.
We searched till we’re tired, and now with the dawn,
Theres no doubt about it-
Nobody’s gone!
