Said I'd never talk to you, no, no, no
Not for all the money in Kuwait
Said I'd never play your game, yeah, yeah
For me I could never dream a worse fate
Said I'd never gaze again into your gray eyes
And all of the chaos that they create
No, no, a thousand times no I won't be no fool
No, no, a thousand times no I won't be your tool
No, no a thousand times no
Said I'd never come back home, no, no, no
And that is not no idle threat
Said I'd never give you back
Your dumb old books
Don't have a single shred of regret
Said I'd never play into your perfect hand
That is one most certain bet
I say no but my heart says yes
I say no then I acquiesce
Yes, yes, yes, oh yes
Said I'd never wait around, no, no, no
Not for all the golden bricks in Fort Knox
Said I'd never buy into your tired old lies
Sit ourselves down and have one of our talks
Said I'd never give into your tricky ways
Seal your memory inside a fool-proof box
