lyrics

I Never Had A Hit

I ain’t got no big estate
I ain’t got no swimming pool
I don’t drive any luxury cars
Don’t need no richness to be cool

Never wrote a song like “In The Summer Time”
Or “I Did It My Way” – But I don’t give a shit!
I never had a hit

I don’t need no golden watertaps
No greek marble floor
I don’t need securities
To guard my entrance door

Never wrote a song like “Yesterday”
Or “Smells Like Teen Spirit” – But I don’t give a shit!
I never had a hit

I ain’t got no motorship
With princesses on board
There’s no fanclub and no cult
I’m neither a leader nor the lord

Ain’t got no island and no french castle
No diamonds&pearls outfit – I don’t give a shit!
I never had a hit

I never wrote a song like “Billie Jean”
Or “Like A Rolling Stone”
No “Good Vibrations”,“Let It Be”!
No “Cowboy of Rhinestone”

I will never sit in my own 747 cockpit
But I don’t give a shit!
I never had a hit

I never had a hit I never had a hit
If you don’t get it you can’t lose it
I never had a hit I never had a hit
I don’t give a shit! I never had a hit

Don’t wanna be like Elvis
Not The King and not the Prince
I don’t need to eat lobsters
Black caviar or Japanese Quince

I got a one-room flat, my bicycle
My guitar and that’s it – I don’t give a shit!
I never had a hit

I never wrote a song like “Purple Rain”
I never wrote “Blue Monday”
I ain’t got no “Heart Of Gold”
But still the rent to pay

I never wrote a song like “Yesterday”
Or “Smells Like Teen Spirit” – But I don’t give a shit!
I never had a hit

I never had a hit I never had a hit
If you don’t get it you can’t lose it
I never had a hit I never had a hit
I don’t give a shit! I never had a hit
