Oh No!

Marina And The Diamonds · The Family Jewels [2010]

Don't do love, don't do friends

I'm only after success

Don't need a relationship

I'll never soften my grip



Don't want cash, don't want car

Want it fast, want it hard

Don't need money, don't need fame

I just want to make a change

I just wanna change (x5)



CHORUS:

I know exactly what I want and who I want to be

I know exactly why I walk and talk like a machine

I'm now becoming my own self-fulfilled prophecy

Oh, oh no, oh no, oh no



One track mind, one track heart

If I fail, I'll fall apart

Maybe it is all a test

Cause I feel like I'm the worst

So I always act like I'm the best



If you are not very careful

Your possessions will possess you

TV taught me how to feel

Now real life has no appeal

It has no appeal (x5)



(chorus repeat twice)



I'm gonna live, I'm gonna fly,

I'm gonna fail, I'm gonna die,

I'm gonna live, I'm gonna fly

I'm gonna fail, gonna die, die, die, die



(chorus repeat twice)



Da-da-da...

Oh, oh no, oh no, oh no, oh.

Oh No!
