Car song! About all the lies a life partner can tell you and everything you'll do to get to the truth!

lyrics

DON’T GIVE ME NO BLUES Y. GAGNON (lyrics, melody) / G. Cardinal (music) © 2011

HOW MANY MORE TIMES DO I HAVE TO HEAR THAT SAME NUMBER
HOW MANY MORE YEARS ‘TIL YOU KILL THAT QUICK-TEMPER
SOMETIMES IT SEEMS LIKE YOU’VE LOST ALL INTELLIGENCE
A MAN LIKE YOU SHOULDN’T TELL ME THINGS THAT JUST MAKE NO SENSE.

YOU CONSTANTLY LET YOUR DEMONS WIN OVER LOGICALITY
YOU ALWAYS CHOOSE THE EASY WAY LEADING TO FACILITY
I TRIED TO SHOW YOU HOW BEING A TRUE AND HONEST MAN, BUT,
YOU KEEP BENDING YOUR KINDA TRUTH WHICH EVER WAY YOU CAN.


DON’T GIVE ME NO BLUES, I’VE HAD ENOUGH, ENOUGH CAN’T U SEE
DON’T GIVE ME NO BLUES, EVEN LESS BITTERSWEET COMEDY


EVERY CHANCE YOU GET YOU LIE OVER AND OVER TO MY FACE
AND YOU THINK I DON’T KNOW YOU’RE JUST FALLING FROM GRACE
MODERN DAY RELATIONSHIP JUST REAR ITS UGLY HEAD
BODY IMAGE SO IMPORTANT TO YOU IT SURELY MAKES ME FEEL DEAD.

TO MAKE SURE I WAS RIGHT I LEFT NO STONES UNTURNED
I FOUND OUT HURTFUL THINGS, GOT TOO CLOSE AND GOT BURNED
AFTER ALL I THOUGHT I DESERVED WAY MORE RESPECT
BUT I ENDED UP DEALING WITH THE DIRTY SIDE-EFFECTS.


DON’T GIVE ME NO BLUES, I’VE HAD ENOUGH, ENOUGH CAN’T U SEE
DON’T GIVE ME NO BLUES, EVEN LESS BITTERSWEET COMEDY


Bridge:
SO I GUESS IT’S UP TO ME TO SWALLOW THE RULES OF YOUR GAME
BUT I’M CURIOUS TO SEE WHAT YOU’D SAY IF I DID THE SAME
MAYBE IT WOULD GIVE YOU SOME WISDOM IF I’D BE THE ONE WHO CHEAT
ONE THING IS FOR SURE, SPINNING WHEEL WOULD BE COMPLETE.


DON’T GIVE ME NO BLUES, I’VE HAD ENOUGH, ENOUGH CAN’T U SEE
DON’T GIVE ME NO BLUES, EVEN LESS BITTERSWEET COMEDY
DON’T GIVE ME NO BLUES, I’VE HAD ENOUGH, I'VE HAD ENOUGH
DON’T GIVE ME NO BLUES, EVEN LESS BITTERSWEET COMEDY
