I can't get no satisfaction
I can't get no satisfaction

'Cause I try, and I try, and I try, and I try

I can't get no
I can't get no

When I'm drivin' in my car
And that man comes on the radio
He's tellin' me more and more
About some useless information

Supposed to fire my imagination
I can't get no
Oh, no, no, no
Hey, hey, hey
That's what I say

I can't get no satisfaction
I can't get no satisfaction

'Cause I try, and I try, and I try, and I try

I can't get no
I can't get no

When I'm watchin' my TV
And that man comes on to tell me
How white my shirts can be
But he can't be a man, 'cause he doesn't smoke
The same cigarettes as me

I can't get no
Oh, no, no, no
Hey, hey, hey
That's what I say

I can't get no satisfaction
I can't get no girl reaction
'Cause I try, and I try, and I try, and I try

I can't get no
I can't get no

When I'm ridin' 'round the world
And I'm doin' this and I'm signing that
And I'm tryin' to make some girl
Who tells me: Baby, better come back later next week
'Cause you see I'm on a losing streak

I can't get no
Oh, no, no, no
Hey, hey, hey
That's what I say
I can't get no
I can't get no

I can't get no satisfaction
No satisfaction
No satisfaction
No satisfaction
I can't get no

I see a red door
And I want it painted black
No colors anymore
I want them to turn black

I see the girls walk by
Dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head
Until my darkness goes

I see a line of cars
And they're all painted black
With flowers and my love
Both never to come back

I've seen people turn their heads
And quickly look away
Like a newborn baby
It just happens everyday

I look inside myself
And see my heart is black
I see my red door
I must have it painted black

Maybe then, I'll fade away
And not have to face the facts
It's not easy facing up
When your whole world is black

No more will my green sea
Go turn a deeper blue
I could not foresee this thing
Happening to you

If I look hard enough
Into the setting sun
My love will laugh with me
Before the morning comes

I see a red door
And I want it painted black
No colors anymore
I want them to turn black

I see the girls walk by
Dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head
Until my darkness goes

I wanna see it painted
Painted black
Black as night
Black as coal

I wanna see the sun
Blotted out from the sky
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted
Painted black, yeah
