I Get No Joy - Jade Bird

Military march

In and out my head

Everything I did

Everything I said

Take you to the arch

For your happiness

Or spend it like a lark

Singing for nothing

I get no joy

I get no joy

All the words my mother said

Can’t seem to get them out my head

Everything becomes everything

You live, you learn, you love, you’re dead

I get no joy

Together and apart

Do it all again

Right back to the start

Straight up to the end

I’m such a fool

Got everything and you

Yet my heart is so blue

I’m singing for nothing

I get no joy

I get no joy

All the words my mother said

Can’t seem to get them out my head

Everything becomes everything

You live, you learn, you love, you’re dead

I get no joy

I swear that I don’t pay attention

If I did, would intervention come to me in a dream?

Or is that just what the directors and the pills and

Other deflectors would have you believe?

Psychotic, hypnotic, erotic;

which box is your thing?

Fact how many days a week do you feel

Electric, connected, unexpectedly affected?

What do you need?

What do you need?

I get no joy

I get no joy

All the words my mother said

Can’t seem to get them out my head

Everything becomes everything

You live, you learn, you love, you’re dead

I get no joy

I know the sun will shine

Another day, another time

I know the sun will shine

Another day, another time

I know the sun will shine

I know the sun will shine

Electric, connected, unexpectedly affected

What do you need?

What do you need?

I get no joy

I get no joy

All the words my mother said

Can’t seem to get them out my head

Everything becomes everything

You live, you learn, you love, you’re dead

I get no joy

I get no joy

No joy
