[00:25.20]People just ain't no good
[00:31.43]I think that's well understood
[00:37.18]You can see it everywhere you look
[00:43.33]People just ain't no good
[00:50.00]We were married under cherry trees
[00:55.68]Under blossom we made pour vows
[01:02.11]All the blossoms come sailing down
[01:08.01]Through the streets and through the playgrounds
[01:13.29]The sun would stream on the sheets
[01:20.19]Awoken by the morning bird
[01:26.30]We'd buy the Sunday newspapers
[01:31.97]And never read a single word
[01:38.17]People they ain't no good
[01:45.00]People they ain't no good
[01:50.22]People they ain't no good
[02:01.70]Seasons came, Seasons went
[02:07.59]The winter stripped the blossoms bare
[02:14.47]A different tree now lines the streets
[02:20.23]Shaking its fists in the air
[02:26.15]The winter slammed us like a fist
[02:31.84]The windows rattling in the gales
[02:38.11]To which she drew the curtains
[02:43.69]Made out of her wedding veils
[02:48.99]People they ain't no good
[02:56.04]People they ain't no good
[03:02.08]People they ain't no good
[03:13.85]To our love send a dozen white lilies
[03:21.00]To our love send a coffin of wood
[03:26.08]To our love let aal the pink-eyed pigeons coo
[03:32.71]That people they just ain't no good
[03:38.12]To our love send back all the letters
[03:43.69]To our love a valentine of blood
[03:49.39]To our love let all the jilted lovers cry
[03:56.00]That people they just ain't no good
[04:02.30]It ain't that in their hearts they're bad
[04:09.07]They can comfort you, some even try
[04:15.17]They nurse you when you're ill of health
[04:19.72]They bury you when you go and die
[04:26.03]It ain't that in their hearts they're bad
[04:32.50]They'd stick by you if they could
[04:38.58]But that's just bullshit, baby
[04:44.83]People just ain't no good
[04:49.93]People they ain't no good
[04:56.35]People they ain't no good
[05:02.55]People they ain't no good at all
[05:14.20]People they ain't no good
[05:20.13]People they ain't no good
[05:25.96]People they ain't no good at all
