“I guess you go for nothing
if you really want to go that far.”

"Death of a Ladies' Man" (1977)
Other Lyrics
Context: So the great affair is over
but whoever would have guessed
it would leave us all so vacant
and so deeply unimpressed.
It's like our visit to the moon
or to that other star
I guess you go for nothing
if you really want to go that far.
