I Didn't Have the Nerve to Say No Songtext

von Blondie

You got ants in your pants
I don't understand
I don't trust a blink of your eyes
You're a viper and love's your keeper
You said something profane and went for a vein
But in spite of your "delicate touch"
I should have known as much, another bleeder
I didn't have the nerve to say no
I didn't have the nerve to say no
You caught me surprised and my will resigned
Torture the minds of them all
You're a brain drain you'd better beat it
I'm following lines
The blind leads the blind
So hang me or grant me a stay
You better cut me loose or hand me a noose
I didn't have the nerve to say no
I didn't have the nerve to say no
No, no, no, no
(Repeat)
You said something profane and went for a vein
But in spite of your "delicate touch"
I should have known as much, another bleeder
There's no end to the problem of a bad situation
Complication
No, no, no, no, ah
There's no end to the problem and frustration
I need a vacation
No no no no ah
And I know I couldn't
And I know that I couldn't say no
