Lyrics
Everybody wants a piece of me--
And you know me, I try to oblige--
But listen up, the party's over now.
I'm not giving in this time.
Chorus:
What started as a Yes became a hard, resounding No.
I stood up to those fools and told them all where they can go.
I thought I could be everything to everybody else.
Now I know there ain't no pleasing no one but myself.
Being nice won't get a girl anywhere
But it's always been my way.
Come back later, you might wear me down
But it's not happening today.
Chorus
No, no, no, no, no....
Chorus
Now I know there ain't no pleasing no one
but myself
