“I’m Not Satisfied” was written between 1963 to 1965, around the same time that Frank Zappa divorced his ex-wife Kay Sherman, and was also arrested and spent 6 months in jail for “conspiracy to commit pornography”, this all makes it hard to not see the song as a product of Zappa’s mental state durin...
[Intro]
Yeah!
[Verse 1]
Got no place to go
I'm tired of walking up and down the street all by myself!
No love left for me to give
I try and try but no one wants me the way I am!
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Why should I pretend I like
To roam from door to door?
Maybe I'll just kill myself
I just don't care no more
[Chorus]
Because I'm not satisfied
Everything I've tried
I don't like the way
Life has been abusing me
[Interlude]
Yeah! Yeah!
[Verse 2]
Who would care if I was gone?
I never met no one who'd care if I was dead and gone!
Who needs me to care for them?
Nobody needs me why should I just hang around?
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Why should I just sit and watch
While the others smile?
I just wish that someone cared
If I was happy for a while
[Chorus]
Because I'm not satisfied
Everything I've tried
I don't like the way
Life has been abusing me
[Outro]
Yeah!
