Semisonic - Never You Mind Lyrics






Saturday morning alone and barely feeling
Sitting at home after rocking and a-reeling
All night
In a cat fight
With the only one who can make me cry

Open the blinds and the world is in rotation
Shaking my mind like an Etch-a-Sketch erasing
Sunshine, you were bad,
I'm still mad
But I can't remember why

I believe you know me well
I react like you're ringing a bell
Are you sorry that you treat me unkind?
Never you mind

Rolling along to the song that aggravates us
Beckoned on by the mirage of an oasis
Hurry,
I'm getting blurry
And it's no longer clear in my mind

I believe you know me well
I react like you're ringing a bell
Are you sorry that you treat me unkind?
Never you mind

I believe I got you down
You react like anybody else around
Are you sorry that we wasted our time?
Never you mind

Sometimes it takes all my time guessing why I can't figure it out
Some days it takes all my energy just to forget about
All the memories that I'd be better off without

I believe you know me well

Switch on the box, Mr. Spock is on the table
Dr. McCoy is unable to connect his brain
Sweating and straining
Well, it seemed so simple at the time

I believe you know me well
I react like you're ringing a bell
Are you sorry that you treat me unkind?
Never you mind

I believe I got you down
You react like anybody else around
Are you sorry that we wasted our time?
Never you mind
Never you mind
Never you mind

Are you sorry that you treat me unkind?
Are you sorry
Are you sorry that we wasted our time?
Never you mind
Never you mind
Are you sorry that we wasted our time?
Are you sorry
Are you sorry that you treat me unkind?
Never you mind

Semisonic Never You Mind Comments
  1. R.... R....

    2020 and im still diggin this song

  2. R.... S....

    A melhor

    Ficava inspirado ouvindo pela 411vm

  3. C.... M....

    Hey everybody can any of you help me figure out how to play this on the keyboard

  4. P.... S....

    Wow, I can't believe it's been 20 years. Great high school memories. The harmony on "unkind" has always been one of my many favorite things about this song. The fuzzy bass and suburban guitar are right up there. What a time to grow up.

    P.... S....

    It makes me sad for kids today will never experience the peak awesome-ness that was being a teen in the 90's - now they are just lonely on their phones 24/7 it seems...

  5. H.... t....

    This song always gives me star trek vibes idk

  6. K.... K....

    2018 anyone? Also I was 1K like. Great song

  7. D.... M....

    Love the Spock's Brain reference.

  8. M.... L....

    411vm best of 5 .... nostalgia.. ..the last period of the true skateboarding culture. .. oh and never been kissed. .. ;) 1999.... the last year before the disaster

  9. M.... ....

    Got to love the fuzz bass on this song.

  10. B.... c....

    Sunshine you were bad I'm

    Sweatin' and strainin'
    Well it seemed so simple at the time

  11. E.... O....

    true 411

  12. g.... a....

    im a phag and i like to fuck my own ass

  13. c.... g....

    aweaone me fucking demo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  14. R.... L....

    movie by drew barrymore brought me here

  15. E.... O....

    cool 411 chet Thomas!

    E.... O....

    Hell yeah!

  16. M.... D....

    I hope i'm not the only who finds this piano main riff very near to a verse from The Beatles "I'm Only Sleeping". Is there some (more) inspiration?

    M.... D....

    Couldn't place that piano riff, knew it sounded familiar .........solved ......thanks.

  17. H.... ....

    What's up with that Star Trek reference I wonder?

  18. T.... S....

    Everytime I watch Never Been Kissed I end up on YouTube searching all the soundtracks. <3 ❤️😍😎

    T.... S....

    Tisha Savage me too. One of my favorite movies

    T.... S....

    Literally same I came from Never Been Kissed as well, lol

    T.... S....

    I had the CD back in the day (who knows where it disappeared off to, as I'm 34 now. YIKES...) But yeah, this movie was on cable the other day and now I'm here YouTubing all the songs on the soundtrack for the nostalgia! :)

    T.... S....

    Same !!!

  19. M.... W....

    huh. sounds like satellite by guster

    M.... W....

    +Mitch White but this was released first, don't give Guster the credit.

    M.... W....

    +Colin Puth tell me where I claimed guster made this first. I simply said it sounds like it.

    M.... W....

    +Mitch White you are right didn't mean to accuse, but because Guster is a more household name many think Semisonic stole the melody when this is not so.

  20. B.... B....

    Sad when they disband. Such potential. Great album

    B.... B....

    What's sad is that this amazing song never got the air play on the radio that it deserved.

    B.... B....

    I get that. But IMO it's better to have creators producing excellent content over a (relatively) short period of time than for them to live on for years and years under the shadow of their former success, only a shell of their former creative ability.

    B.... B....

    @Maizerus The late-90s was a crowded time on the airwaves. What a time. I don't think we'll ever see anything like that again. This song would really stand out today in this void we're existing in.

  21. N.... ....

    A good throwback sure!! love this song :)

  22. t.... ....

    I've heard this song so many times, but never knew the title or band, and I accidentally stumbled on it! Awesome.

  23. L.... M....

    thank you for putting this up!

  24. f.... m....

    the best of the 90's quite a mouthful. No?

    f.... m....

    no, but up there

    chuck Core 👍

    c.... C....

    So true. I was sponsored by my local skate shop, and I used to love being the one to crack open the box of new 411VM’s every month and watch em in the shop. Always loved this part and song. Memories man, memories.

    c.... C....

    @Vincent Vegait's amazing how we all have such great memories of those times , idk about any one else but I personally hang on to those and never let them go cause they've made me who i am today.

    One of my favorite albums of the 90s......and we all know what great music, of all genres, came out in the 90s.

  45. J.... F....

    They are playing in Minnesota May 19, and Matt will be there, too, (he happened to play the solo on this song). Now there is a show that you don't wanna miss.

  46. F.... ....

    YOU KNOW IT!!! I HAVE THAT VID TOO!

  47. F.... ....

    YESS!!!! I have that vid!!

  48. A.... H....

    411 Ep28 - my fist sk8board video tape

  49. t.... s....

    411 video - Gershon Mosley - 'wet look bin liner' style trousers.

  50. Q.... ....

    @nicolidominn Me too. Just watched through my DVD set again. Listening to all the music now. Some brilliant songs.

  51. n.... ....

    Here because of The Crow: Stairway to Heaven...and because the idea of Mark Dacascos being angsty-like is amusing, sort of like using this song to emulate said angst.

  52. Q.... ....

    jheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeze ive had bare views on my vids

  53. M.... B....

    really i remember

  54. D.... M....

    anyone has a video lyrics of chemistry by semisonic??? please..tnx! xo

  56. l.... ....

    one of the best songs off the album!

  57. t.... ....

    this song rocks mah ass

  58. g.... ....

    411 n 28!!!
    muito bom!!!

  59. a.... ....

    @thecdrx good old days huh

  60. P.... ....

    Best Beatles-influenced song of all time. And the lyrics are amazing. Even the best artists don't come up with analogies like 'shakin' my mind like an Etch-a-Sketch erasin' every day and make it fit into their own song.

  61. m.... ....

    @lindseybean1020

    Switch on the box, Mr. Spock is on the table,
    Dr. McCoy is unable to connect his brain,
    Sweating and straining,
    Well, it seemed so simple at the time.
    They do! I'd never thought that they were trekkers!

  62. L.... B....

    I met the drummer in October. He hung out in my creative writing class and talked to all of us. Great guy.

  63. o.... ....

    @JizzOnAScotsman Unfortunately they aleready broke up.

  64. M.... ....

    @Cnat123 You're lucky you could enjoy these bands in their glory days. I was sitting in front of the TV watching Sesame Street with my finger up my nose (I was in preschool in 1998). I envy you.

  65. y.... ....

    @lordconan1976 in never been kissed? the song i remember playing was "please please please let me get what i want" by the smiths =]

  66. M.... ....

    More people should know about this band. I have a ton of their stuff on my phone and when I ask people if they've ever heard of Semisonic, they just give me a blank stare. Damn shame.

  67. V.... P....

    2 ppl misslicked thumb ><

  68. n.... ....

    no pasa nada ...xD

  69. j.... A....

    good ;-)

  70. B.... ....

    @thecdrx wow, ya I found this song out thru 411 also

  71. K.... ....

    Great song :]

  72. A.... ....

    @thecdrx that vhs tape is the reason I was searching for this masterpiece, it is fun to find somebody who was thinking about same old and kinda rare skateboarding edit when listening to this song :)

  73. T.... C....

    Ahhh...back in the days when we were teenagers and our lives revolved around skating with friends :)

  74. M.... ....

    @Mathertron oops just seen it was the A-team roadtrip on 411 apparently. I was at Mt.Hawke, Marc Johnson rocked and got pissed off with all the kids ignoring his sickness to watch Rodney Mullen piss about on the manual block :D Great days!

  75. M.... ....

    @ItchingJ hells yeah must've been the 411 with the G20 expo (fuck cant even remember if thats wot it was now) up in LDN. Steve olsen owning it and JT dropping in from the seating area. That mustve been over 10 years ago. *oldness* :)

  76. P.... ....

    man dis song is da shizzle brut yh u best not be chatting shizzle my nizze or i might have to spout some p.dizzle ferizzle about u on the street yh.

  77. P.... ....

    THIS SONG ROCKS!

  78. S.... ....

    Funny, I also discovered this song from 411, and it definitely brings me back.

  79. O.... ....

    Yep, I agree with all these comments.

    And yes, skating is as good as dead in my eyes sadly, and I think a lot of others too. There's nothing special about it anymore...well except for Mike Mo, but that's about it.

  80. a.... ....

    Yeah thats why I searched this up. I love my old skate tapes

  81. A.... D....

    A-TEAM ROADTRIP <3<3<3 I can remember how I was soooo stoked on Marc Johnson in that part ! Great times, first skatemovie I ever bought, back in 1999 !

  85. E.... ....

    Anyone know where I might find piano sheet music to this song?

  86. n.... ....

    yep! That's where I first heard it knew I had to buy the cd.

  87. L.... O....

    Buy the CD for crying out loud, its an old album so it wont cost that much and a bit more of the royalties wil go to the artist

  88. S.... K....

    Semisonic-Gods of power pop!!!

  89. o.... ....

    Buy the cd.

  90. S.... M....

    maybe you could... you know, buy the cd?

  91. m.... ....

    cud anyone tell me where i cud find semisonic's "makin' a plan"?
    limewire doesnt have it:(:(

  92. B.... ....

    One of the best lyrics of all time is in this song:

    "shaking my mind, like an etch-a-sketch erasin'"

  93. O.... ....

    I love this piano intro ;o)
    I only knew the album "all about chemistry", but I'd really like listening the previous ones
    great band

  94. S.... ....

    the A TEAM Roadtrip @ 411VM :-)
    jeah , switch on the BOX rules , mr spock ist aufm table

  95. b.... ....

    good song, also first heard it on 411

  96. A.... ....

    YES! I heard this song first time in an old 411VM video, love it since then.

  97. J.... D....

    first time I heard this song was from a 411 SkateVideo..anyone agree?

  98. o.... ....

    Ilove this song!!! it reminds me when I was working at Structure in the mall in 11th grade!!
