Lyrics Bastille – No Angels
Text:
Spoken (Excerpt from Psycho):
Norman
Well, I run the office and tend the cabins and grounds and—and do the errands for my mother. The ones she allows I might be capable of doing.
Marion
Norman
Well, a—a boy’s best friend is his mother.
Dan Smith:
A scrub is a guy who thinks he’s fly and is also known as a buster
Always talkin’ about what he wants and just sits on his broke ass
So, no, I don’t want your number
No, I don’t wanna give you mine and
No, I don’t wanna meet you nowhere
No, don’t want none of your time
No, I don’t want no scrubs
A scrub is a guy that can’t get no love from me
Hangin’ out the passenger side
Of his best friend’s ride
Trying to holler at me
I don’t want no scrubs
A scrub is a guy that can’t get no love from me
Hangin’ out the passenger side
Of his best friend’s ride
Trying to holler at me
Trying to holler at me at me
Ella:
But a scrub’s checkin’ me and his game is kinda weak
And I know that he cannot approach me
‘Cause I’m looking like class and he’s looking like trash
Can’t get with no dead-beat ass
Dan Smith:
No, I don’t want your number
No, I don’t wanna give you mine and
No, I don’t wanna meet you nowhere
No, don’t want none of your time
No
Ella:
I don’t want no scrubs
A scrub is a guy that can’t get no love from me
Hangin’ out the passenger side
Of his best friend’s ride
Trying to holler at me
I don’t want no scrub
A scrub is a guy that can’t get no love from me
Hangin’ out the passenger side
Of his best friend’s ride
Trying to holler at me
Holler at me
Holler at me
Holler at me
Dan Smith:
If you don’t have a car and you’re walking
(Oh yes son, I’m talking to you)
If you live at home with your momma
Norman
We’re all in our private traps
If you have a shorty but you don’t show love
Norman
Clamped in them, and none of us can ever get out
Wanna get me with no money
Oh no, I don’t want no
No scrubs, no scrubs
Marion
Sometimes we deliberately step into those traps
No scrubs,
Norman
I was born in mine; I don’t mind it anymore
No scrubs,
Marion
Oh but you should, you should mind it
No scrubs,
Norman
Oh I do, but I say I don’t
Together:
No, I don’t want no scrubs
A scrub is a guy that can’t get no love from me
Hangin’ out the passenger side
Of his best friend’s ride
Trying to holler at me
I don’t want no scrubs
A scrub is a guy that can’t get no love from me
Hangin’ out the passenger side
Of his best friend’s ride
Ella
Trying to holler at me
Trying to holler at me
Ella
Holler at me
Trying to holler at me
