Don't need no one, that's no good for me
You're no good for me, I don't need nobody

You're no good for me, I don't need nobody
Don't need no one, that's no good for me

The lyrics to "No Good" by The Prodigy are repetitive but powerful. The singer repeatedly tells someone that they're no good for him and that he doesn't need them. The lyrics " come on, who can hear the bass drum?" seem to invite the listener to feel the rhythm and energy of the song. It could also be interpreted as a challenge to the listener, implying that only those who can hear the bass drum are truly immersed in the music and able to appreciate its power.
One interpretation of the lyrics is that the singer is rejecting someone who has hurt him or is bad for him in some way. He's drawing a line in the sand and making it clear that he won't tolerate their behavior anymore. Alternatively, the lyrics could be interpreted more broadly, as a declaration of independence and self-reliance. The singer is saying that he doesn't need anyone else to be happy and fulfilled.
Overall, "No Good" is a high-energy dance track that encourages listeners to move their bodies and immerse themselves in the music. The driving beat and catchy chorus make it an enduring classic of the EDM genre.

My country is Serbia (part of ex Yugoslavia) and Prodigy was the first foreign band which played concert in my country after war ended. They came literally 3 weaks after ending of war in prime of their popularity. The concert was amazing and members behaved like we are "normal" country without fear or prejudices. I just can't describe how enormously my people are thankful to Prodigy for that greatness. After 4 years of suffering and horribleness, that concert was the most beautiful thing that happened to Serbian people. It was so huge that even we younger generations who even wasn't born at that time, know about it.
