The Vaselines – No Hope lyrics
(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.
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.
