Lyrics for I Didn't Have The Nerve To Say No

You got ants in your pants I don't understand I don't trust a blink of your eyes You're a viper and love's your keeper You said something profane and went for a vein But in spite of your "delicate touch" I should have known as much, another bleeder I didn't have the nerve to say no I didn't have the nerve to say no You caught me surprised and my will resigned Torture the minds of them all You're a brain drain you'd better beat it I'm following lines The blind leads the blind So hang me or grant me a stay You better cut me loose or hand me a noose I didn't have the nerve to say no I didn't have the nerve to say no No, no, no, no (Repeat) You said something profane and went for a vein But in spite of your "delicate touch" I should have known as much, another bleeder There's no end to the problem of a bad situation Complication No, no, no, no, ah There's no end to the problem and frustration I need a vacation No no no no ah And I know I couldn't And I know that I couldn't say no
