Wired All Wrong has been described as functioning similar to God Lives Underwater, Turzo's former band, in the sense that the two founding members, Turzo and Mahaffey, write, record and produce all the music then perform it live alongside a full band. Their on-stage presence is that of an over-the-top, garage-band-esque, heavy metal sound accented by Mahaffey's light-hearted stage antics.
Nothing At All
Wired All Wrong Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Who I would go and visit on the downtown seat
She promised me love but it didn't come free
And I don't mean money but the way she'd be like
"It makes no sense to me why
You can't just stay with me tonight
You're the apple of my eye"
Now they've come to take me away
What have I done to be so afraid
Staring down the barrel of a gun
And lady I don't know you, you don't know me any better
Better listen what I'm sayin, cause this means
Nothing at all, nothing at all, nothing at all
Lady tell me the truth, can we trust to the letter?
Better listen what I'm saying, cause this means
Nothing at all, nothing at all, nothing at all
Check it
Always known a girl by the name of Christine
Who I've been macking on since the age of 19
She could lead me on like a border collie
But I still keep coming like I hit the ground runnin' sayin'
"I'll do my hair up real fly
I'll wear brand names that you like
You're the apple of my eye"
Shit like that but she never called back so
Now they've come to take me away
What have I done to be so afraid
To turn her off like a television
And lady I wanna know you, don't you wanna know me better
Better listen what I'm saying, or is this
Nothing at all, nothing at all, nothing at all
Lady I'm telling the truth, trust me to the letter
Better listen to what I'm saying, or is this
Nothing at all, nothing at all, nothing at all
Guess it was something I said
That put those thoughts in your head
Guessing you're better off dead
If you can't make me notice
Guess it was something you said
That put those thoughts in my head
Guessing I'm better off dead
If I can't make you notice
All in all the damage is done
Why can't we turn it off and on like a television
Now I'm staring down the barrel of a gun
Because I can't make you notice a reaction
And lady I don't know you, you don't know me any better
Better listen what I sayin' cause this means
Nothing, nothing, nothing at all
Lady tell me the truth can we trust to the letter?
Gotta listen what I'm saying, cause this means
Nothing at all, nothing at all, nothing at all
Oh... nothing at all
Oh...
The lyrics in Wired All Wrong's song “Nothing At All” tell the story of two men, each with a different woman in their lives, who promised them love but ultimately let them down. The first man knew a girl named Emily, who promised him love but expected more than just his presence in return. The second man had been pursuing a girl named Christine since he was 19 years old, but despite his efforts to impress her, she never called him back. The song portrays their frustration and sense of hopelessness as they realize that their relationships have turned into empty promises, and they are left with nothing.
The chorus of the song repeatedly states that “this means nothing at all,” highlighting the idea that the relationships and promises made between the men and their partners were not genuine or meaningful. The song’s bridge moves into a darker tone, with the lyrics suggesting that the men have become so desperate for attention and affection from their partners that they feel like they are staring down the barrel of a gun. The song ultimately concludes with the men expressing their disappointment and frustration with their situations, but acknowledging that ultimately there is nothing they can do to change them.
Overall, the lyrics of “Nothing At All” paint a picture of relationships that are unfulfilling, empty and without meaning. They highlight the feelings of desperation, hopelessness, and ultimately, resignation that many people feel when their attempts to connect with others are met with indifference or rejection.

Shit like that so I never went back but

Shit like that but she never called back so

Why can't we fix the situation like changing the channel on a TV?
Now I'm staring down the barrel of a gun
I'm in a dangerous situation

I don't know you, and you don't know me any better

Nothing, nothing, nothing at all

Tell me the truth, can we trust each other completely?
Gotta listen what I'm saying, cause this means
You have to listen to what I'm saying because it's important
Nothing at all, nothing at all, nothing at all
It doesn't mean anything
Oh... nothing at all
It's meaningless
Oh...
