Unstoppable bassline, fierce, driving energy, and uncompromising lyrics delivered in a talk/sing style by the British artist Tor Maries, this brilliant single has the punchy air of Sleaford Mods and also Róisín Murphy. The song is produced by Portishead and Beak drummer Geoff Barrow, with bass by Rich Leicester and Bill Maries drums. Billy Nomates’s new single FNP is also here. More of her work can be found on Bandcamp. A future album is due on out Invada Records.
No is the greatest resistance
No to your nothing existence
No is a walk// No small talk
No I don't think it looks better
Yes we are stronger together
But No is a power// anytime//anyplace
No I won't die on your floor
No I'm not righteous anymore
No I don't fit in your pocket
I won't shave everything off I'm not twelve
Yes I'm gonna put in the hours
No to your ivory towers
No's gonna start a war
So die if you think its worth fighting for
Everybody twist for me
Well c'mon and crack your knees honey
Bend your back'a please baby
No
Everybody twist for me
Well c'mon and crack your knees honey
Bend your back'a please baby
No
No when they don't hear the answer
Be nobody’s tiny dancer
No it’s not always for the best// people run off just because they can
Yes I am the same as him
No I don't feel like celebrating
Yes its true what they say sometimes
No to protein shakes and mirrors
Yes to running at night fearless
No dying to get skinny// trust me
No to the digital narrative
No to the pointless comparatives
These people mostly hate themselves// I've been one of them
You have my word
Everybody twist for me
Well c'mon and crack your knees honey
Bend your back'a please baby
No
Everybody twist for me
Well c'mon and crack your knees honey
Bend your back'a please baby
No
