Lyrics Whipping Boy

Whipping Boy

We Don't Need Nobody Else

In the morning I am a recluse, lost in memories

Ideal situations and convulsions

I'm never in and I can't remember

They built portholes for Bono, so he could gaze

Out across the bay and sing about mountains

Maybe. You are what you own in this land

You can be King and it all depends on the view and what

you can see

And around here nobody tells me what to do anymore

We don't need nobody else

We don't need nobody else

We don't need nobody else

We don't need nobody else

Why say words that I do not mean

They only serve to amuse, ridicule and destroy,

Hardly ever to teach

I hit you for the first time today

I didn't mean it

It just happened

You wouldn't let me go to the phone,

You wanted to make love and I did not

Now I know the distance between us

Christ we weren't even fighting, I was just annoyed

Silence and you started to cry, that really hurt

You said, yeah and you thought you knew me

We don't need nobody else

We don't need nobody else

Just you and me

Just you and me

Consider this as the wine takes hold

And sinks into your veins

I try to force it but it's not there

Love gives you comfort

And comfort makes you dim

She's in the kitchen

Putting beads in her hair

It all came out tonight

The queen of drugs broke down and cried

'Cause she'd been shagging her best friends guy

She knew the form, she knew the lie

She wasn't shy and she refused to try

That's why I'm gazing out of portholes

And I'm wondering why

We don't need nobody else

We don't need nobody else

Just you and me
