Satisfaction
Vee-no Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

Living easy, living free
Season ticket on a one-way ride
Asking nothing, leave me be
Taking everything in my stride
Don't need reason, don't need rhyme
Ain't nothing I would rather do
Going down, party time
My friends are gonna be there too
I'm on the highway to hell
On the highway to hell
Highway to hell
I'm on the highway to hell

Are you gonna go my way?
And I got to got to know

I can't get no satisfaction,
I can't get no satisfaction
'Cause I try and I try and I try and I try, try, try
I can’t get no, I can’t get no
When I'm drivin' in my car, and the man come on the radio
He's tellin' me more and more about some useless information
Supposed to fire my imagination
I can't get no,




no, no, no,
hey, hey, hey

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Vee-no's song "Satisfaction" touch upon themes of freedom, rebellion, and the search for fulfillment. The opening lines depict a carefree and adventurous lifestyle, with the singer proclaiming their desire to live "easy" and "free" with a "season ticket on a one-way ride." This paints a picture of someone who is unapologetically living life on their own terms, without the constraints of societal expectations.


The lyrics express a sense of nonconformity and independence, as the singer declares that they don't need "reason" or "rhyme" and are content to simply "take everything in [their] stride." This rebellious attitude is further emphasized as they proclaim their excitement for "party time" and the prospect of being surrounded by friends on their journey, even if it means heading towards what is metaphorically referred to as the "highway to hell."


The chorus introduces a contrast to the carefree spirit described earlier, as the singer admits a sense of dissatisfaction. They repeat the famous lines "I can't get no satisfaction," expressing frustration and a sense of unfulfillment despite their outward appearance of freedom and enjoyment. The repetition of "try" underscores their efforts to find contentment, but ultimately feeling unfulfilled and disconnected, especially when bombarded with "useless information" from the radio that fails to ignite their imagination or provide any real satisfaction.


The lyrics culminate in a sense of frustration and disillusionment, as the singer's inability to find satisfaction is highlighted through the repetition of "no, no, no." This sense of being inundated with superficial distractions and lacking a deeper sense of purpose or fulfillment is encapsulated in the closing lines. The constant striving for something that remains elusive is portrayed as a struggle, ultimately leaving the singer questioning and seeking a more meaningful and authentic experience beyond the superficiality of the world around them.
