Counting Crows - She Don't Want Nobody Near Lyrics
She don't want nobody near
But you can't get away from that
They appear and disappear
And they all get a string attached
Pretty soon they got you hanging on a line
They say, "I'm alright, I just can't get home tonight"
She don't want nobody home
Cause it's a little too crowded then
But she don't wanna be alone
So they just keep pouring in
Pretty soon they have her headed for the door
She comes home to find that they're not hanging round no more
She says, "I'm alright, you just can't get home tonight"
Don't you wonder what she looks like in the light?
Pretty whitewashed lies
Endless alibis
And reasons that need cleaning every night
Half a world away
You can't wash away the stain of the deceiving
And the things that you cannot believe, and well...
She don't want no one around
Cause she don't want anybody to see
What she looks like when she's down
Cause that's a really sad place to be
Pretty soon she gets them crawling up the walls
Then she wonders why they beg her please to never call
She says, "I'm OK. It's alright.Hey, look who's on TV
tonight"
She says, "I'm alright, I just can't get home tonight"
Don't you wonder why it's dark outside at night?
She says, "I'm alright, I just can't get home tonight"

She don't want nobody near
But you can't get away from that
They appear and disappear
And they all get a string attached
Pretty soon they got you hanging on a line
Pretty soon they're singing one by one the same old rhyme
They say, "I'm alright, I just can't get home tonight"
She don't want nobody home
Cause it's a little too crowded then
But she don't wanna be alone
So they just keep pouring in
Pretty soon they have her headed for the door
She comes home to find that they're not hanging round no more
She says, "I'm alright, you just can't get home tonight"

What does she look like in life? 🙈

Hey look who’s on TV tonight!
such a great song. and a really fantastic video. wish i knew who directed.
This is my theme song.
They say this was the first video he discovered his hands.
A song in 2003 that has to me a 90’s feel to it. These guys were awesome
Love this song.
great song and fantastic video. i wonder who directed it?
man, such an amazing video. and a great song. should have more views
lve u Adam
im alright
This band always brings something different and special. Will always sound brand new to me.
my song
i always thought Courtney Cox was in the video for some reason?
she's in the video for Long December
best song of theirs imo.
my theme song
What a damn good song..... too bad it doesn't get the air play it rightfully deserves.
Come for the pineapple comments
best writer to come around for a long time. follow this band since 93. Last album wonderland is amazin
Absolutely agree ♡
Why did I not see this before? Love this band they put mortal bands in the shade. Visionaries. Inspiration to write and play for plebs like me.
Very great indeed - awesome in fact
This is the music for people who are forever lost in their own half memories of life.
+Cameron Kay You say that like it's a bad thing.
Well its not a fun thing but the music makes it better
HA!! Spot on Cameron Kay. I can relate to 90% of Adam's music. This song represents a double edged sword to me (I feel it)---you hunger for human companionship and once you realize your wish you don't know how to handle it and screw everything up (especially with girlfriends). People think you're a jerk and it hurts you because in reality you are just hurt, confused, and scared. It's a trait almost akin to willful self-destruction. Edgar Allan Poe had it I think...so many others have this willful self-destructive trait too. Thank God for pills!!
when you eat nukes you feel triple the woman
is 2015 almost 2016 and I'm still listening this ... good music :') #GOODOLDDAYS please come back :(
I hear ya. I was a young teen in the early 90s. Best music came out then.
soy jose y los sigo de mis 8 años tengo 29 años.! muy buena banda!!! facebook.... dosis.rnr saludos adam
Rocking a Gram Parsons T. Yeah. Love you, Adam. Genius. Pure and simple.
Them:-:-)
august and everything after was awesome.... I was very depressed then and my memories are tied to the songs and thinking back it was a pretty great time. Id go back in a heart beat...
you too thanks!
comment and subscriibe! lol
+allen sharako totally!
Def a favorite album of mine. M20 'Yourself or someone like you.' The Cure 'Wish' and 'Disintegration' and Everclear 'So Much for the Afterglow' a few more of my favorites
ZOMG. same! Hope things are better now xox
Sexiest man alive...then and now.
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaagreed
fantastic thank you
He really should've counted more of those crows and not eaten so many!
What? They all are in his hair see?
GelenosOak He has a serious mental illness that requires him to take medication that can cause people to overeat. Also get back to me when musicians don't have to be great singers, writers, and in peak physical health to be accepted. Ridiculous
Look ...not Foo Fighter or Joy Division/Smiths stuff but damn good.
+declan kelly why compare? counting crows are great in their own sense.
Joy Division are boring though..
que puedo decir.. sencillamente marabillosa cancion..
It makes me sad that I had to type "she don't want n" in the search box before this came up in the suggestions.
OMG I feel exactly the same!!! I saw "she dont wanna be a freak no more" im like so sad. Real music died after the 90s
COMPLETELY AGREE. Sigh. We need to be more active fans yall.
@SickMike07 This actually came out in '04, but I get what you mean. ;)
it's such a shame their music sucks now.
Have you actually heard Somewhere Under Wonderland? I wasn't a big fan of Underwater Sunshine either, but their new record is fantastic.
Would so not agree with you, they kind of went off kind of , but you have to listen to somewhere under wonderland one of the best album's around for me my two favourite song's are Palisades Park and God Of Ocean Tides love both there songs
+Christopher Kelly God of Ocean Tides is amazing. Sounds like it could be off of August and Everything After
Don't piss me off friend. Counting Crows never fell off. EVER.
Beauty hair
Enough about the hair. So retarded. Just listen to the music.
Looking forward to @CountingCrowsVEVO #2014 #Album
everybody is happy but me
te sigo desde monterrey ,paz y 90 ,2000
Seriously, I've never seen his hair like that. Even when he is all sweaty in concert.
Sing this...
"They'er all drinking Kool-Aid and I don't like the cherry flavor. I suggested that they used grape...but they used red. I don't know if it's fruit punch or cherry flavored or strawberry because I don't like it to begin with...It's been a long December..."
Love the Game Grumps reference but the song they were referencing was Round Here haha
This song is about Courtney Cox.
@StrongBadSE This song is from around 1998. The Courtney era was Recovering the Satellites (1996). None of the songs on This Desert Life (1999) are known to have been about her but it's not IMPOSSIBLE. Before calling people fools.. I'd like to know your proof that this is about her?
OK --> Give me ONE reason why you think this song is about Courtney Cox, as opposed to any of the other 300 girls he dated by that point. Maybe its about "Elisabeth" or the same girl that "Miami" is about. Just because she's famous doesn't mean she actually gets more lyric time.
or Jennifer Aniston?
Which, pun pretty much intended, Miami is about "my Amy"
She don't want nobody dancing in the dark....
what a writer
wtf is wrong wit his hair
one of the best crow songs. weird how it never caught on
I just don't get bored of this band!
Counting Crows are fucking awesome, my 2nd favorite band of all time, never gets old listening to them.
Ibl33dGr33n4Life whos you number 1?
he got fat
Makes me sad to see 23 comments and only 19,000 views, when so many chart songs get way way more, and stuff like this means so much more to everybody, something is wrong
Awesome love them <3
love it
This fucking guy could sing the phone book and make it fantastic. I am counting crows and it ads up to good music.
Right?!
Absolutely love Adam & CC. Best band ever,
did counting crows draw inspiration from the cure?
Sorry i love it
I lo be it
The world needs more bands like Counting Crows!
Actually, I think a Sideshow Bob comment would be less original. He got that a lot, when he had this hairstyle. :)
Prior to anyone else saying it: That pineapple can sing really well.
Anyway, most unoriginal comment out of the way.
Missed you guys
Awesome song!!!!!
I wish I could see you guys on tour with The Wallflowers.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great :D
