No Hope Songtext
von The Vaselines

(Eugene)
I′ve lived my life
on the edge of a knife
And I can't give it up.

(Frances)
In the fast lane of misery and pain
And I can′t give it up.

(Eugene)
I've had a good time
on the weeds and the wine
And I can't give it up.

(Frances)
I′ve been up, been down,
below and above ground,
And I can′t give it up.

(both)
And I can't give it up.

(guitar)


(Eugene)
Better under the table
than under the ground,
And I can′t give it up.

(Frances)
I lack what it take,
but my life's a mistake,
And I can′t give it up.

(Eugene)
It all went wrong
the day I was born,
And I can't give it up.

(Frances)
I′ve tried to invest,
but I was a mess.
And I can't give it up.

(both)
And I can't give it up.

(guitar piece)

(Eugene)
It′s hard to refuse
when you′ve nothing to lose,
And I can't give it up.


(Frances)
I need to drink more,
My life′s such a bore,
And I can't give it up.

(Eugene)
I′ve had my fill
and I've made my will.
And I can′t give it up.

(Frances)
I drink all I can
'cause it makes me a man,
And I can't give it up.

(both)
And I can′t give it up
