Lyrics

Recognize us, we’re the kids who live down the street

Recognition of the group as the local youth

We went to school, we tried to observe your rules

Attempt to follow societal rules during their school years

But you were there a long time ago

Addressing someone from the past

Things were different

Reflection on a time when things were different

The world moved slow

Commentary on the slower pace of the world in the past

Now is today we watched you try

Observation of contemporary actions

All you ever gave us was lies, lies, lies

Expressing disappointment with receiving only lies


We never take no for an answer

Assertion of refusal to accept 'no' as an answer

We never take no

Reiteration of the refusal to accept 'no'

We never take no for an answer

Stating a persistent attitude of not accepting rejection

We never take no

Emphasizing the commitment to rejecting 'no'


Remember the things you said we’d have?

Recollection of promised achievements

Two big cars in every garage

Reference to the promise of wealth and success

Well, now you’re lucky if you live in one

Observation of a decline in living standards

I got a laugh when I look at what you’ve done

Expressing amusement or sarcasm at the current situation

Now is today, we watched you try

Current assessment of attempts made by the addressed person

All you ever gave us was lies, lies, lies

Reiteration of disappointment with receiving lies


We never take no for an answer

Emphasizing the persistent refusal to accept 'no'

We never take no

Restating the rejection of 'no'

We never take no for an answer

Continued assertion of not accepting 'no'

We never take no

Reaffirmation of the commitment to reject 'no'


We never take no

Repetition of the refusal to accept 'no'

We never take no

-

We never take no

-

We never take no for an answer

-

We never take no for an answer

Further repetition of the persistent rejection of 'no'

We never take no for an answer

-

We never take no for an answer

-

We never take no for an answer

-

We never take no

Final repetition emphasizing the refusal to accept 'no'

We never take no

-

We never take no

-

We never take no for an answer
