You're No Good Lyrics - John Wesley Harding

How can you be so dark and disgusting 

When she's all sweetness and light 

She doesn't lie through her teeth all day 

She doesn't grind them in her dreams 

When you hold her tight at night 

How can you be so sick and suspicious 

When she's health and goodness personified? 

That love you gave her, it's just a virus 

That wants blood for dr.hyde 

She's an angel and you're a clown 

She'll be flying when you're six feet under the ground 

You'll be lying because someone told you you should 

She's an angel and you're no good 

How can you be so cool and distant 

When she always does her best to be here 

Right between your dreams and your nightmare desires 

The hole in your wall has got so small 

Her stockings are so sheer 

How can you be so greedy and hopeless 

She gives you everything but you still want more 

If you could see the looks you give her 

That's something you'd abhor 

She's an angel and you're a joke 

A shaggy dog shuffling in to give the punchline a poke 

You're just dying to turn her into red riding hood 

She's an angel and you're no good 

She's a not a barbie doll 

You can drag around on some dog collar 

You can't wrap love up in clingflim 

Keep it from getting older 

She'll always be so artless 

You're heartless, getting colder 

Don't try to come from behind 

Cos I'll be right over your shoulder 

How can you treat her dumb and stupid 

When she knows that you're not the bee's knees 

You'll have to let her turn the bedside light right off 

Instead of you turning it down to mood by the three degrees 

How can you be so limp and spineless 

When she'd even help you to make your final stand 

It's not enough for anyone 

Just to lie back and think of iceland 

She's not an angel, she's flesh and blood 

You do the dirty and she's crawled around right in your mud 

Now you're crying, I think that we knew that you would 

She's an angel and you're no good
