people ain’t no good

People just ain’t no good
I think that’s well understood
You can see it everywhere you look
People just ain’t no good

…

It ain’t that in their hearts they’re bad
They can comfort you, some even try
They nurse you when you’re ill of health
They bury you when you go and die
It ain’t that in their hearts they’re bad
They’d stick by you if they could
But that’s just bullshit
People just ain’t no good

People they ain’t no good
People they ain’t no good
People they ain’t no good
People they ain’t no good at all

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, ‘People Ain’t No Good’
