Kinks Nobody Gives Here are the song lyrics for Nobody Gives by Kinks. For more excellent Kinks lyrics, run a search! Sung by the tramp I cant understand why everybodys quarreling, Nobody gives in case they lose face, And everybodys guilty and everybodys innocent, And the fact of it is nobody gives any more. Its the same throughout all history, Nobody gives unless they receive, And nobody trusts or is willing to believe And nobody gives or is willing to concede. Back in nineteen hundred and twenty-five There were thousands of people struggling to survive. There was hunger, unemployment and poverty, Then in 1926 they decided to be free So they all went on strike and The workers told the unions, who blamed it on the government, The politicians blamed it on the strikers and the militants, Everybodys guilty and everybodys innocent, But the fact of it is nobody gives any more. Back in nineteen hundred and thirty-nine There were scores of german military waiting in a line, And the fatherland wanted what the world wouldnt give, And then hitler decided he could take what was his, So they all went to war and said Kill all the left-wing intellectuals, Annihilate the jews and wipe out their race, Eliminate the weak because theyre ineffectual, And the fact of it is nobody gives any more. Im only sitting here watching it all go on And listening to both sides. Yeah, why cant we talk it out, Why cant we sort it out, Well work it out if we try. Why cant we sit down and work out a compromise, Why not negotiate and try to be civilised? Ill tell you why, because nobody gives a damn. Nobody listens and no one will understand. Yet Im wondering, sitting here wondering, And listening to both sides. Why cant we work it out? Why cant we sort it out? Well work it out if we try. Why cant we sit down and work out a compromise, Why not negotiate and try to be civilised? Ill tell you why, because nobody gives a damn. Nobody listens and no one will understand. Yet, Im wondering, sitting here wondering, Yet Im wondering, sitting here wondering Listening to both sides. Nobody gives, nobody gives, nobody gives. The workers told the unions who blamed it on the government, The politicians blamed it on the strikers and the militants, Everybodys guilty and everybodys innocent. Nobody gives. nobody gives a damn any more. The politicians, unions, workers and the militants, The fact of it is nobody gives any more.
