You Said No by Newtown Neurotics Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 1979

Soon after I met you
Things began to move in my world
But, to think it was love I was feeling
Struck me as being absurd
But now you've got me by the balls
I've ended up another pathetic fool 'cos

Chorus:
You said no
"But why can't we be friends"
You said no, no, no, no, no
It'll do no good to pretend

I didn't want to ignore you
So I gave in and said "alright then"
But it really chokes me, to see you
Showing interest in other men
You're driving me completely insane
Cos' I know damn well that I have no claim

Chorus:
Over you
"But why can't we be friends"
You said no, no, no, no, no
It'll do no good to pretend
Just wanted to love you, just wanted to help you
I wanted to belong to you and to have the
Opportunity to fuck you
You're telling me how lonely you are
And I'm standing here aching to hold you in my arms

Chorus:
But you said no
"you just wanted a friend"
You said no, no, no, no, no
It'll do no good to pretend

I feel so embarrassed 'bout the things that we said while alone
I've got my filter-tipped crutches to, help me survive on my own
People lose limbs in terrorist games and
I have the nerve to complain I'm in pain

Chorus:
'Cos you said, no no no
"you just wanted a friend"
You said, no, no, no, no, no
It'll do no good in the end

And I asked you again but you said

Chorus:
No no no
"you just wanted a friend"
You said, no, no, no, no, no
It'll do no good in the end
The end? the end? This is the fucking end
I said, I, 2, 3,4,5,6,7,8,9
And we shall end it on 10
