Nothing At All
Adam Kay & Suman Biswas Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's amazing how pretty you looked on that night
Your skirt was so short and your top was so tight
I bought you a drink and we danced on the floor
We pulled and you came back to mine for some more

Your skirt ended up on the living room chairs
And your top and your bra, they came off on the stairs
And though you looked fit with your clothes on
Man I was a fool...
Cos you look like shit, when you wear nothing at all

Oh the clothes that you wore looked a million dollars
But the body beneath, it looked just like Rik Waller's
The make-up you wear is a clever disguise
To hide your moustache and the squint in your eyes

Your cellulite's dreadful, you're covered in zits and
Your stomach's about as defined as quicksand
If I'm being honest your tits are unacceptably small
So you look like shit, when you wear nothing at all

When we went back to mine I was up for a shag
In the bedroom I realise you're a dumpy old slag
Your pubes reach your navel and they cover your thighs
Didn't know they made arses that size

When we met on that night, I could swear that I never
Would've guessed you're a female Andrew Lloyd Webber
The hair on your chest's a bit endocrinological
And you look like shit, when you wear nothing at all

Your teeth are all yellow with bloody great gaps so
Your face is a picture by Pablo Picasso




I can see that your arse has it's own gravitational pull
And you look like shit, when you wear nothing at all

Overall Meaning

The song "Nothing at All" by Adam Kay & Suman Biswas is a satirical take on the superficiality of modern dating culture. The lyrics describe a one-night stand with a woman who appeared attractive while she was dressed up but was disappointing once the clothes came off. The singer initially seems impressed by her appearance in her tight clothing and short skirt, but once they're alone together, he realizes that her body doesn't live up to his expectations. He criticizes her physical flaws, including cellulite, zits, and small breasts, and even makes a jab at her pubic hair. The chorus emphasizes his disappointment with the line "You look like sh*t, when you wear nothing at all."


The song is meant to be a commentary on the unrealistic expectations that people have when it comes to physical appearance. The singer's shallow attitude is meant to be a reflection of the way that many people judge others based solely on their looks, rather than valuing them as whole people. The lyrics are deliberately offensive and harsh to highlight the absurdity of judging someone's worth based on their appearance.


Line by Line Meaning

It's amazing how pretty you looked on that night
You looked good, but it was just an illusion


Your skirt was so short and your top was so tight
Your clothes hid the ugly truth


I bought you a drink and we danced on the floor
I was trying to impress you, but it didn't matter


We pulled and you came back to mine for some more
You were easy, but I didn't expect this


Your skirt ended up on the living room chairs
Your clothes came off quickly, revealing your flaws


And your top and your bra, they came off on the stairs
You tried to seduce me, but it was a mistake


And though you looked fit with your clothes on
You looked great, but it was deceptive


Man I was a fool...
I was fooled by your looks


Cos you look like shit, when you wear nothing at all
You are unattractive without your clothes


Oh the clothes that you wore looked a million dollars
Your clothes were expensive, but didn't hide your flaws


But the body beneath, it looked just like Rik Waller's
Your body was unappealing, like a celebrity known for being overweight


The make-up you wear is a clever disguise
You use makeup to conceal your flaws


To hide your moustache and the squint in your eyes
You have facial hair and a noticeable eye disorder


Your cellulite's dreadful, you're covered in zits and
Your skin has visible issues


Your stomach's about as defined as quicksand
Your mid-section is unattractive


If I'm being honest your tits are unacceptably small
Your breasts are too small


So you look like shit, when you wear nothing at all
Your overall appearance is unappealing


When we went back to mine I was up for a shag
I was expecting sex


In the bedroom I realise you're a dumpy old slag
You are unattractive and promiscuous


Your pubes reach your navel and they cover your thighs
Your body hair is unappealing


Didn't know they made arses that size
Your backside is unattractive


When we met on that night, I could swear that I never
I was shocked by how different you looked


Would've guessed you're a female Andrew Lloyd Webber
You have a resemblance to a famous composer


The hair on your chest's a bit endocrinological
Your chest hair is noticeable and suggests a hormonal imbalance


And you look like shit, when you wear nothing at all
Overall, you are unappealing


Your teeth are all yellow with bloody great gaps so
Your teeth are unattractive


Your face is a picture by Pablo Picasso
Your facial features are distorted and unappealing


I can see that your arse has it's own gravitational pull
Your backside is unattractive


And you look like shit, when you wear nothing at all
Again, you are not visually appealing

@richardpurves

I bought an Amateur Transplants album for an anesthetist friend of mine. Very quickly had to turn her iPod off because it came on before the patient was fully out :D Mission accomplished.

@charlesbosher6719

I absolutely adore Suman. This was fantastic. What are the flashing things on everyone's hands?!

@DrCanadianGamer

cell phone flashlights

@charliebosher9806

@@DrCanadianGamer deffo not cellphones. Must have been a freebie, loads of them have rings on which are flashing. Woman at 14:05 has a flashing thing and a cellphone! I clearly worry way too much about these things!
