When I wake up in the afternoon
Which it pleases me to do
Don't nobody bring me no bad news
'Cause I wake up already negative
And I've wired up my fuse
So don't nobody bring me no bad news

If we're going to be buddies
Better bone up on the rules
'Cause don't nobody bring me no bad news
toi can be my best of friends
As opposed to payin' dues
But don't nobody bring me no bad news

No bad news
No bad news
Don't toi ever bring me no bad news
'Cause I'll make toi an offer, child
That toi cannot refuse
So don't nobody bring me no bad news

When you're talking to me
Don't be cryin' the blues
'Cause don't nobody bring me no bad news
toi can verbalize and vocalize
But just bring me the clues
But don't nobody bring me no bad news

Bring some message in your head
ou in something toi can't lose
But don't toi ever bring me no bad news
If you're gonna bring me something
Bring me, something I can use
But don't toi bring me no bad news
