You Can't Say No Forever Songtext

von The Go-Betweens

You can have hearing loss when you're
Boyfriend says he's boss you're scared of
A new endeavour. What can be tempting
You? Who can be tempting you, you
Look like a winter.
You can't say no forever You can't say
No forever. I've tried.

Run! if you have to run up to the mountain
Air a writer's retreat maybe. Sheltered
And lonely there a fireplace and a rocking
Chair you understand me.
You can't say no forever You can't say
No forever. I've tried.

You can't say no in December as the trees
Lined the drive. I'm sure your family
Remembers me by your side.

Night! as your clothes discard he asks
Was your day hard you can barely answer
"Yes my world's
Tumbling down
Stone by stone
To the ground"
Please take out the garbage.

You can't say no in December a piano
Played by a child's hand drifts over the
Verandah and I'm your man.

You can't say no forever. You can't say
No forever. You can't say no forever.
You can't say no forever.
I've tried and I know why.
