Satisfaction Songtext
von DEVO

Now, we didn′t have any girlfriends because...
In Akron, Ohio they didn't wanna go out with guys dress like this
So that gave us more time in the basements
And one cold night in the basement when the heating wasn′t working
Bob 2 starting doing this, yeah
And then Alan, he started doing that
Well, you know Jerry couldn't help himself
He had to do this

I can't get no satisfaction
I can′t get me no satisfaction
And I try and I try
And I try, t-t-t-t-try, try
I can′t get no
I can't get me no

When I′m riding in my car
And a man comes on the radio
He's tellin′ me more and more
About some useless information
Supposed to fire my imagination


I can't get no
No-no-no
Hey, hey, hey
That′s what I say

I can't get no satisfaction
I can't get me no girls action
And I try and I try
And I try, t-t-t-t-try, try
I can′t get no
I can′t get me no

When I'm watchin′ my TV
And a man comes on to tell me
How white my shirts could be
But it can't be a man ′cause he does not smoke
Same cigarettes as me

I can't get no
No, no, no
Hey, hey, hey
That′s what I say


And when I'm flying 'round the world
And I′m doin′ this and I'm tryin′ do that
And I'm trying to make some girl
To tell me, "Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Baby, better come back later next week"
See I′m on a losing streak

I can't get no
No, no, no
Hey, hey, hey
That′s what I say

I can't get no (satisfaction)
I can't get me no (satisfaction)
I can′t get no (satisfaction)
I can′t get me no (satisfaction)

No-no-no-no-no-no-no (satisfaction)
No-no-no-no-no-no-no (satisfaction)
No-no-no-no-no-no-no (satisfaction)
No-no-no-no-no-no-no (satisfaction)
Oh, no, no, no I can't get me no (satisfaction)
Oh, no, no, no I can′t get me no (satisfaction)
Oh, no, no, no I can't get me no (satisfaction)

Ha-ha, that′s a groove
