Text: Eric Carmen. No Hard Feelings.

We was young
And still believed in a hard day's night
But no one seemed to understand
That there was no relief in sight

The company man
He's got his nose glued to the charts
He says, "The record's doin' fine
But now the group is fallin' apart"

I hope there's no hard feelings
'Cause there isn't anyone to blame
I hope there's no hard feelings
'Cause nothin' ever stays the same

Well we was locked in image prison
Waitin' for that break
We was raped, reshaped and tryin' to escape
Caught in a rock and roll time warp
Tryin' to find the way to get out

Four years on
And things were really gettin' too intense
Critics ravin' 'bout our album
But we're makin' fifty cents

And in the end
We was facin' the hard, cold truth
So tomorrow come what may
Looks like it's Ricky and the tooth

I hope there's no hard feelings
'Cause there isn't anyone to blame
I hope there's no hard feelings
'Cause nothin' ever stays the same

Well we was locked in image prison
Waitin' for that break
We was raped, reshaped and tryin' to escape
Caught in a rock and roll time warp
Tryin' to find the way to get out

We gave it everything we had to give
But it was gettin' so tough
Too much frustration makes it hard to live
I think enough is enough
I said, "Enough is enough"

I hope there's no hard feelings
'Cause there isn't anyone to blame
I hope there's no hard feelings
'Cause nothin' ever stays the same

While we was locked in image prison
Waitin' for that break
We was raped, reshaped and tryin' to escape
Caught in a rock and roll time warp
Tryin' to fine the way to get out
Caught in a rock and roll time warp
Tryin' to find the way to get out

Lemme out, lemme out
Lemme out, lemme out, lemme out
I gotta get out
Lemme out, lemme out
I gotta, gotta, gotta get out
My God you get, get out

Lemme out
I gotta get out
Lemme out, lemme out, lemme out
Lemme out
I gotta get out
I gotta get out
