[Verse]
BMeaningless? 
You mean it's all been Abmmeaningless?
Every whisper Eand caress? 
F#Yes, yes, yes, it was totally mBeaningless
BMeaningless
Like when two fireAbmflies fluoresce
Just like everyEthing I guess
F#Less, less, yes, it was utterly mBeaningless
BEven less
A little glimpse of Abmnothingness
Sucking meaning from the Erest of this mess
F#Yes, yes, yes, it was thoroughly mBeaningless
[Chorus]
EAnd if some dim bulb should F#say
We were in love in some Bway
Kick all his teeth in for Eme
And if you F#feel like keeping Eon kicking, F#feel free
[Verse]
BMeaningless
Who dare to say it wasn't Abmmeaningless?
Shout from the rooftops and aEddress the press
F#Ha ha ha, it was totally mBeaningless
BMeaningless
Meaning less than a Abmgame of chess
Just like your mother said and Emother knows best
I knew it all the time but F#now I confess
EYes, yes, F#yes, how deliciously Bmeaningless
[Outro]
Yes, yes, F#yes, effervescently Emeaningless
Yes, yes, F#yes, it was beautifully Bmeaningless
Yes, yes, F#yes, it was profoundly Emeaningless
Yes, yes, F#yes, definitively Bmeaningless
Yes, yes, F#yes, comprehensively Emeaningless
Yes, yes, F#yes, magnificently Bmeaningless
Yes, yes, F#yes, how incredibly Emeaningless
Yes, yes, F#yes, unprecedentedly Bmeaningless
Yes, yes, F#yes, how mind-blowingly Emeaningless
Yes, yes, F#yes, how unbelievably Bmeaningless
Yes, yes, F#yes, how infinitely Emeaningless
