One World

Dire Straits

Can't find no sleeves for my records 
Can't get no laces for my shoes 
Can't get no fancy notes 
On my blue guitar 
Can't get no antidote for blues 

Can't find the reasons for your actions 
Or I don't much like the reasoning you use 
Somehow your motives are impure 
Or somehow I can't find the cure 
Can't find no antidote for blues 

They say it's mostly vanity 
That writes the plays we act 
They tell me that's what everybody knows 
There's no such thing as sanity 
And that's the sanest fact 
That's the way the story goes 

Can't get no remedy on my TV 
There's nothing but the same old news 
They can't find a way to be 
One world in harmony 
Can't get no antidote for blues
