Notes

Martin Gore in Bong issue no. 37, 1998:

"This is the one that sounded most like Depeche Mode on [Ultra], but I still really like it, because it’s again, just on that right side of commerciality. I think it’s really good when we achieve that balance."

Dave Gahan told MTV in 1997:

"It was the most Depeche Mode sounding song that we've put out for a long time. The title itself is pretty funny, Depeche Mode's new single, "It's No Good." I like that."

Lyrics


It's No Good

I'm going to take my time

I have all the time in the world

To make you mine

It is written in the stars above

The gods decree

You'll be right here by my side

Right next to me

You can run, but you cannot hide


Don't say you want me

Don't say you need me

Don't say you love me

It's understood

Don't say you're happy

Out there without me

I know you can't be

'Cause it's no good


I'll be fine

I'll be waiting patiently

Till you see the signs

And come running to my open arms

When will you realise

Do we have to wait till our worlds collide

Open up your eyes

You can't turn back the tide


Don't say you want me

Don't say you need me

Don't say you love me

It's understood

Don't say you're happy

Out there without me

I know you can't be

'Cause it's no good


I'm going to take my time

I have all the time in the world

To make you mine

It is written in the stars above


Don't say you want me

Don't say you need me

Don't say you love me

It's understood

Don't say you're happy

Out there without me

I know you can't be

'Cause it's no good
