Rocky M Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can't get no satisfaction
And I try and I try and I try and I try
I can′t get no, I can't get no
When I'm drivin′ in my car
And the man comes on the radio
And he′s tellin' me more and more
Supposed to fire my imagination
I can′t get no, oh, no, no, no, hey, hey, hey
That's what I say
I can′t get no satisfaction
I can't get no satisfaction
′And I try, and I try, and I try, and I try
I can't get no, I can't get no
When I′m ridin′ 'round the world
And I′m doin' this and I′m signin' that
And I′m tryin' to make some girl, who tells me
Baby, better come back later next week
Can't you see I′m on a losing streak?
I can′t get no, oh, no, no, no, hey, hey, hey
That's what I say
I can′t get no satisfaction
I can't get no satisfaction
And I try and I try and I try and I try
I can′t get no, I can't get no
I can′t get no, I can't get no
I can't get no, I can′t get no (No satisfaction)
I can′t get no, I can't get no (No satisfaction)
I can′t get no, I can't get no
The song "Satisfaction" by the Rolling Stones is a timeless classic that explores the frustration and restlessness that comes with the pursuit of happiness and fulfillment. The opening line of the song, "I can't get no satisfaction," sets the tone for the rest of the song. The singer is expressing his dissatisfaction with the world around him and the constant desire for something more.
The first verse describes the singer driving in his car, listening to the radio and feeling bombarded with useless information. He feels like he can't find anything that will truly excite him or stimulate his imagination. The second verse depicts him traveling the world, signing autographs and trying to make connections with women he meets. However, even with all these experiences, he still can't find the satisfaction he's searching for, and is constantly met with disappointment.
The repetition of "I can't get no, no, no," and "hey, hey, hey" in the chorus adds to the frustration and exasperation that the singer is feeling. Despite his efforts, he can't seem to find any satisfaction in his life. The song's overall message is a commentary on the consumerist culture that was prevalent at the time, where people were constantly being sold the idea that happiness could be bought with material possessions. The Rolling Stones are critiquing this ideology and rejecting the notion that material possessions can provide true fulfillment.
