Lyrics

Rejected

6/8/2023

0 Comments

 
If I’ve entered once, I've entered twice
But I always get the same advice
“While we thank you for your entry fee,
This won’t be going on your cv”

And I got rejected last time
Becoming quite a pastime
Damn elusive print prize
It’s always no, no go, oh no

Wanna develop professionally
Can I have a funded residency?
Put my application in today
Dreamin’ of a printing holiday

But I get the standard letter
"You're gonna have to go one better
Don’t start packing yet, cause
It’s still no, no go, no go”

​And I got rejected last time
Becoming quite a pastime
Damn elusive print prize
It’s always no, no go, oh no

Another knock back, there’s no doubt
Got no friends in my bank account
My studio back-rent keeps on mounting
Why didn’t I take up accounting?

Well, I got rejected last time
Becoming quite a pastime
Please be yes just one time
Instead of no. No go, oh no
Cause it’s always no
It’s no go
You still say no
No no no…
​
​Mick Jagger & Keith Richards, The Last Time, 1965
