It Ain't Love But It Ain't Bad

(album: Whatever Happened To Slade - 1977)

Backstage rendezvous are healthy
They realise there ain't for keeps ooh
Nitty gritty recreation
I have to go without some sleep
Ooh ooh it ain't love but ooh ooh it ain't bad
Some of them one night stands ooh ooh that I've had
Keeping me happy all the time I'm on my own
Keeping me satisfied when I'm away from home
Backdoor ladies so persuasive
How they work to take you in ooh ooh
They guarantee you sheer exhaustion
They notify my next of kin
Ooh ooh it ain't love but ooh ooh it ain't bad
Some of them one night stands ooh ooh that I've had
Keeping me happy all the time I'm on my own
Keeping me satisfied when I'm away from home

Hail the rock 'n' rolling backbone
Cos bigger names they're out to win ooh
No complication or frustration
They don't keep you sane but they keep you thin

Ooh ooh it ain't love but ooh ooh it ain't bad
Some of them one night stands ooh ooh that I've had
Keeping me happy all the time I'm on my own
Keeping me satisfied when I'm away from home
Ooh ooh it ain't love ooh ooh it ain't bad
Ooh ooh it ain't love ooh ooh it ain't bad
Ooh ooh it ain't love ooh ooh it ain't bad
Ooh ooh it ain't love
