Story Behind the Song
"No Such Thing" is a song about mistakes. The lyrics are pretty obvious. The song was recorded during the "Get Into It" sessions. The song was nailed in about two takes. The guitar was redone and so were the vocals. Backing vocals were added at the end of the session.
Lyrics
I felt the earth move,
I heard the bells ring.
I said "Do you beiliece in love?"
He said "There's no such thing."
I was lookin, lookin for someone
with slightly more confindence.
Kinda horny, a little desperate,
and under the influence.
But his sweet talkin words were all that I heard, I was blinded by lust and desire.
I felt the earth move,
I heard the bells ring.
I said "Do you beiliece in love?"
He said "There's no such thing."
On the morning, the morning after,
after our first time together.
Kinda groggy, still hungover,
but I swore I'd be yours forever.
By the look in his eyes I could only surmise
it was over before it began.
I felt the earth move,
I heard the bells ring.
I said "Do you beiliece in love?"
He said "There's no such thing."
