Lyrics
[Verse 1]
My face is finished, my body's gone
And I can't help but think standing up here
In all this applause and gazing down
At all the young and the beautiful with their questioning eyes
[Verse 2]
That I must, above all things, love myself
That I must, above all things, love myself
That I must, above all things, love myself
[Verse 3]
I saw a girl in the crowd
I ran over, I shouted out
I asked her if I could take her out
But she said that she didn't want to
[Verse 4]
I changed the sheets on my bed
I comb the hairs across my head
I sucked in my gut and still she said
That she just didn't want to
[Verse 5]
I read her Elliott, I read her Yates
I tried my best to stay up late
I fixed the hinges on her gate
But still, she just never wanted to
[Verse 6]
I bought her a dozen snow white doves
I did her dishes in rubber gloves
I called her honey bee, I called her love
But she just still didn't want to
She just never wants to, damn
[Verse 7]
I sent her every type of flower
I played the guitar by the hour
I petted her revolting little chihuahua
But still, she just didn't wanted to
[Verse 8]
I wrote a song with a hundred lines
I picked a bunch of dandelions
I walked her trough the trembling pines
But she just even then didn't want to
She just never wants to
[Verse 9]
I thought I'd try another tac'
I drank a liter of Cognac
I threw her down upon her back
But she just laughed, and said that she just didn't want to
[Verse 10]
I thought I'd have another go
I called her my little ho
I felt like my soul, my soul must feel when
She said that she just never wanted to
She just didn't want to
[Chorus]
I got the no pussy blues
I got the no pussy blues
I got the no pussy blues
No pussy blues
I got the no pussy blues
I got the no pussy blues
I got the no pussy blues
