William Gringley

                     I like to hang out nowhere
                     It's a pleasant place to be
                     I rather like to sit around
                     and talk to nobody

                     It's easy conversation
                     But very seldom trite
                     It often keeps me so involved
                     I sit and talk all night

                      Sometimes a someone passes by
                      And notices me there
                      And thinks that I am rather strange
                      For talking to thin air

                      I think that they're mistaken
                      And say I disagree
                      (although nobody hears it
                      Since there's no one there but me)

                      Most often, though, there's No one
                      In the Nowhere where I stay
                      And no one never argues
                      And hears every word I say

                      And so, my buddy No one
                      Little Nobody and me
                      Always talk of nothing Nowhere
                      Where I feel like somebody
