Ain't No Love
Sub Sub Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Let's give some as gifts

Gimme the one
Gimme the one
Gimme the one that I'm asking for

You lie and you cheat and you fall on your feat
You know I ain't gonna take no more
I wish you could see in your heart to tell me
I wish you'd told me from the start
And let it all out
Get it all out
Tell me what you want from me

Whenever I try to communicate
I see you looking for the door
You find an excuse to be with you friends
You know it don't wanna stay at home
Why cant you be good, like a real lover would
And be faithful to me, never deceiving
And let it all out
Get it all out
Pour it all out to me

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Well there ain't no love then there ain't no use
Gonna walk on by, gonna walk on through
Ooh, if there ain't no love, then there ain't no use
Gonna walk on by, gonna walk on through

Oh, there ain't no love then there ain't no use
Ooh, gonna walk on by, gonna walk on through baby
Ain't nothing in the world that you can do, ooh, ooh
'Cause there ain't no love, then there ain't no use, oh
If there ain't no love, then there ain't no use, oh
Gonna walk on by, gonna walk on through, hey, hey
Ain't nothing in the world that you can do
If there ain't no love, then there ain't no use, oh
Ooh, ah, oh, ah, ah-oh, ah, ah-oh, ah
There ain't no love, there ain't no use




There ain't no love, walk on by
Walk on through, there ain't no love, no use

Overall Meaning

The Sub Sub song Ain't No Love is a song about a failing relationship where the singer is begging the other person to be honest with them. The lyrics reflect feelings of hurt and betrayal as the singer realizes that their partner has been lying and cheating. The chorus phrase "There ain't no love then there ain't no use" is a declaration that a relationship without love is meaningless and serves no purpose. The song ends on a note of finality as the singer decides to walk away from the relationship.


The lyrics suggest that there has been a breakdown in communication between the couple. The singer is trying to express their feelings but feels rejected as their partner looks for ways to avoid dealing with the issues. The repeated use of the line 'Let it all out, get it all out' is an encouragement to be honest and upfront with each other. The singer appears to be frustrated with their partner's ongoing dishonesty, and the line 'Why can't you be good, like a real lover would' suggests they feel that true love should involve trust and faithfulness.


Overall, the song is a powerful message about the importance of honesty, communication, and love in relationships. It highlights the pain and frustration that can arise when these elements are missing.

Don't forget Betty Turpin and her famous Lancashire Hotpot
1 1⁄2
lbs lamb necks, cubed
1 1⁄2
lbs potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
1
large onions or 2 medium onions, roughly chopped
3⁄4
pint light stock or 3/4 pint hot water
1
tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1
bay leaf
1
tablespoon flour
1
ounce dripping
1
ounce butter (or use only 2 ozs. butter, no drippings)
salt and pepper
DIRECTIONS
Preheat the oven to 325°F.
Melt the dripping or 1 oz butter over a high heat in a heavy-bottomed frying pan until the fat smokes.
Seal the meat and continue frying until nicely browned.
Remove the pieces from the pan to a deep casserole or divide among four individual high-sided oven proof dishes.
Turn down the heat to medium.
Fry the onions in the pan juices, adding a little more butter or dripping if necessary.
When the onions are soft and starting to brown, sprinkle on the flour and stir in to soak up the fat and the juices.
As the flour paste starts to colour, start adding stock or water a few tablespoons at a time, stirring vigorously to avoid lumps.
Gradually add the rest of the liquid.
Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, add the Worcestershire sauce and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Pour the onions and liquid over the meat and mix well.
Tuck in the bay leaf (tear into 4 pieces if making individual hot pots).
Arrange the potatoes over the meat in overlapping layers, seasoning each layer.
Dot the top layer of potatoes with the remainder of the butter.
Cover the dish and place on the top shelf of the oven for 2 hours.
Uncover and cook for a further 30 minutes.
If the potatoes are not brown at this point, turn up the oven and cook for a further 15 minutes, or finish under the grill, brushing the potato slices with more butter if they look dry.
Serve with red cabbage and chips.

Watching ITV ChartShow from 93' the other day I popped into this song and got stoned! How could I have missed them for almost 30 years?? Stunning music, bassline from heaven and...and...no existing words for Melanie, what an ace catwoman, this band is totally underrated, they should have been ultimate stars!!! Luscious video with an uplifting 90's feel

@sweetlikechocolate437

Oh, the 90's went by so incredibly fast! I really miss that decade.

@ajs41

If I could turn the clock back to any date it would be 1st January 1990.

@ErikValdezmoodybluepoet

That bassline is a drug!

@AlanDammeVan

Classic 90s dance track. They don't make 'em like that any more!

@onthe4572
