“Not Allowed” is the fifth track of the album Who Really Cares by TV Girl. It features samples of the tracks “You Suck,” “Not Allowed,” “Fuck Yourself,” and “Sue Your Friends” by The Yeastie Girlz.
The song presents the story of a man’s one-sided infatuation with an unnamed girl who does not return...
[Intro: Yeastie Girlz]
Now you suck
We wanna talk about sex but we're not allowed
Well, you may not like it but you better learn how 'cause it's your turn now
You're wasting your tongue with lame excuses and lies
Now, what's on your nasty old mind?
[Verse 1: TV Girl]
So how should I begin this?
I guess it started when you were with him
And how he never even took you out to dance
But did he fuck with any rhythm?
But now he's playing with your head
But did he ever make you cum?
Did he ever make you cry?
Do the wires in your mind get sewn together?
Rubbed and severed by the heat
You don't know how long I could stare into your picture
And wish that it was me
I guess it's different 'cause you love him
But I've got an interactive
Sick and twisted imagination
And that's gotta count for something
[Chorus: Yeastie Girlz]
We wanna talk about sex but we're not allowed
Well, you may not like it but you'd better learn how 'cause it's your turn now
You're wasting your tongue with lame excuses and lies
Get your face between my thighs
[Verse 2: TV Girl]
I dreamt I was standing in your doorstep
Licking sweat off of your forehead
With your finger in my mouth
And the sound when leather jackets hit the ground
You should hear when you're not around
When it's just us horny poets
Who can't wait to write it down
And swear we were only being honest
Do you like these little sonnets?
'Cause I wrote them just for you
But how quickly they turn sour
So be careful who you screw
And never call
And I'm starting to suspect
You don't intend to do anything you say at all
[Chorus: Yeastie Girlz]
We wanna talk about sex but we're not allowed
Well, you may not like it but you'd better learn how 'cause it's your turn now
You're wasting your tongue with lame excuses and lies
Now, what's on your nasty old mind?
[Outro: Yeastie Girlz]
All by yourself, sittin' alone
I hope we're still friends, yeah, I hope you don't mind
All by yourself, sittin' alone
I hope we're still friends, yeah, I hope you don't mind
All by yourself, sittin' alone
I hope we're still friends, yeah, I hope you don't mind
All by yourself, sittin' alone
I hope we're still friends, yeah, I hope you don't mind
All by yourself, sittin' alone
I hope we're still friends, yeah, I hope you don't mind
All by yourself, sittin' alone
I hope we're still friends, yeah, I hope you don't mind
All by yourself, sittin' alone
I hope we're still friends, yeah, I hope you don't mind
All by yourself, sittin' alone
I hope we're still friends, yeah, I hope you don't mind
Not Allowed was written by Brad Petering.

TV Girl released Not Allowed on Fri Feb 26 2016.
From TV Girl’s official Bandcamp page:
“Not Allowed” features samples from The Yeastie Girlz’s “Ovary Action” 7 inch. Used with permission from the Girlz.

In a 2014 interview with Cinema Spartan, lead vocalist Brad Petering spoke about his songwriting, which frequently feature themes of bitterness, sarcasm, and longing. The song “Not Allowed,” which speaks of a past or imagined love affair, is a perfect example of Petering’s style.
