We Don't Need Nobody Else

Whipping Boy

In the morning, I am a recluse, lost in memories
Ideal situations and convulsions
I′m never in and I can't rememberThey 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
We don't need nobody else
We don′t need nobody else
Just you and me
We don't need nobody else
We don't need nobody else
Just you and me
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 friend's 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
We don′t need nobody else
We don't need nobody else
Just you and me
We don′t need nobody else
We don't need nobody else
Just you and me
Just you and me
Just you and me
