Lyrics
NO MEANS NO!
YOUR FINGERS GOT YOUR EYEBALLS
DOIN' THEIR DIRTY WORK
MOVIN' 'ROUND MY BINNESS
LIKE PLOWIN' GEORGIA DIRT.
AND THAT AIN'T NO "HELP YOURSELF" SIGN
YOU MIGHT THINK YOU'RE SEEIN'.
IT'S ONE STRONG, DEEP-FEELIN'
BAD-ASS HUMAN BEIN'.
SO BEFORE YOU GET FAMILIAR,
A LITTLE LESSON IN MANNERS AIN'T GONNA KILL YA
NO MEANS NO
YA GOT THAT, JOE?
OR THERE'S THE DO'
AND IT'S TIME TO GO.
YEAH, NO MEANS NO
SO TAKE IT SLOW.
WHEN I WANT MO',
I'M GONNA LET YOU KNOW NO NO NO!
DON'T TAKE NO ALBERT EINSTEIN
GET WHAT I'M TALKIN' 'BOUT.
TURN ON YOUR RADIO,
ARETHA SPELLS IT OUT.
IF YOU'RE OLD ENOUGH TO DRIVE,
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN:
THE LIGHT IS STUCK ON RED
TIL I SAY IT'S GREEN.
WHATEVER YOU'RE ANTICIPATIN'
TRUST ME SUGAR, IT'S WORTH THE WAITIN'
NO MEANS NO
YA GOT THAT, JOE?
OR THERE'S THE DO'
AND IT'S TIME TO GO.
YEAH, NO MEANS NO
SO TAKE IT SLOW.
WHEN I WANT MO',
I'M GONNA LET YOU KNOW NO NO NO
I'M DRAWIN' THE LINE
AIN'T MEANT TO BE CROSSED
IT'S MY BODY
AND I'M THE BOSS
KEEP THAT IN MIND
WHEN YOU GET EXCITED
IT'S ONLY A PARTY
IF I SAY YOU'RE INVITED
NO MEANS NO
YA GOT THAT, JOE?
OR THERE'S THE DO'
AND IT'S TIME TO GO.
YEAH, NO MEANS NO
SO TAKE IT SLOW.
WHEN I WANT MO',
I'M GONNA LET YOU KNOW NO NO NO
