I can't get no satisfaction
I can't get no N I H action
Though I try and I try and I try and I try
I can't get no,  I can't get no

When I'm sitting at my desk  and a letter comes by mail
It's telling me more and more about some useless regulation
Supposed to try my imagination
I can't get no, no, no, no
Hey, hey, hey, that's what I say

He can't get no satisfaction
He can't get no good reaction
Tho he'll try and he'll try and he'll try and he'll try
He can't get no
He can't get no

When he's flying 'round the lab
And he's studying this and that
And he's hopin' a grant to grab
Maybe better come back ___ maybe next week
'cause you see he's on a losing streak
He can't get no,
No, no, no, Hey, hey, hey

I can't get no satisfaction
I can't get no N I H action
Though  I try and I try and I try and I try
I can't get no,  I can't get no
