No No Song:Ringo Starr. #3 in 1973. #1. A lady that I know just came from Columbia she smiled because I did not understand. Then she held out some marijuana ha ha! She said it was the best in all the land. And I said Chorus: No no no no I don’t smoke it no more. I’m tired of waking up on the floor. No thank you please it only makes me sneeze and then it makes it hard to find the door. #2. A woman that I know just came from Majorca in Spain. She smiled because I did not understand. Then she held out a ten pound bag of cocaine she said it was the finest in the land. And I said... Chorus: No no no no I don’t sniff it no more. I’m tired of waking up on the floor. No thank you please it only makes me sneeze and then it makes it hard to find the door. #3. A man I know just came from Nashville Tennessee oh. He smiled because I did not understand. Then he held out some moonshine whiskey oh ho he said it was the best in all the land.   And I said.. Chorus: No no no no I don’t drink it no more. I’m tired of waking up on the floor. No thank you please it only makes me sneeze and then it makes it hard to find the door. Well I said... Chorus: No no no no I can’t take it no more. I’m tired of waking up on the floor. No thank you please it only makes me sneeze and then it makes it hard to find the door. A seventies smash from Kraziekhat.

À propos de la chanson

La chanson aborde le thème de la résistance face à la tentation des substances illicites. Le narrateur raconte ses rencontres avec différentes personnes qui lui proposent de la marijuana, de la cocaïne et du whisky, mais il refuse chaque fois, exprimant clairement son désintérêt. Il semble fatigué des conséquences négatives que ces produits ont sur sa vie, notamment le fait de se retrouver dans des situations désagréables après en avoir consommé. Le contexte est celui des années 70, une période marquée par une grande libération mais aussi par des excès. Cette chanson résonne avec les luttes personnelles que beaucoup ont dû affronter en naviguant entre plaisir et addiction.
