I meet you downstairs at the bar and it hurts me...
Your sleeves rolled up and your skull t-shirt...
You ask: "What did you do with him today?"
and sniff me like I'm a genie.
After all, you are my man, my boyfriend.
You hand me your beer and you disappear.
By the time I got out the door
you finished them off like Roger Moore.

I deceived myself

I'm upstairs in bed with mine ex-boyfriend.
He's where he needs to be, but I'm not having any fun.
I think of you at the very end
and my vibrator comes into play.

Meet you with potatoes and bread...
You say: "When we get married..."
because you're in a good mood
"... there will be nothing left of him."...
I begged you on the kitchen floor.

I deceived myself
like she knew it would.
I told you that I'm nothing but trouble.
You know that there is nothing good in me.

Sweet reunion of Jamaica and Spain...
We are with you again, as in the old days.
I'm in the bath and you're there...
Lick your lips while I wash my feet.
Suddenly you notice my knees, torn off on the carpet.
I get cold and my insides turn over.
You shrug and that's the worst part.
But who was the first to stab someone in the back with a knife?

I deceived myself
like she knew it would.
I told you that I'm nothing but trouble.
You know there's nothing good about me...

Meet you downstairs in the bar and hurt,
Your rolled up sleeves in your skull t-shirt,
You say “what did you do with him today?”,
And sniffed me out like I was Tanqueray,
'Cause you "re my fella, my guy,
Hand me your stella and fly
By the time I "m out the door,
You tear men down like Roger Moore

I cheated myself
Like I knew I would,
I told you I was in trouble
You know that I "m no good,

Upstairs in bed with my ex boy
He "s in a place, but I can" t get joy,
Thinking on you in the final throes
This is when my buzzer goes,
Run out to meet you, chips and pitta
You say "when we married",
"cause you"re not bitter,
"There'll be none of him no more,"
I cried for you on the kitchen floor

I cheated myself
Like I knew I would,
I told you I was in trouble
You know that I "m no good,

Sweet reunion, Jamaica and Spain,
We "re like how we were again,
I "m in the tub, you on the seat,
Lick your lips as I soak my feet
Then you notice likkle carpet burn,
My stomach drops and my guts churn
You shrug and it's the worst,
Who truly stuck the knife in the first place

I cheated myself
Like I knew I would
I told you I was in trouble
You know that I "m no good,

I cheated myself
Like I knew I would
I told you I was in trouble
Yeah, you know that I'm no good.

Amy Winehouse Lyrics

Meet you at the bar downstairs and it hurts me...
Your sleeves rolled up and a T-shirt with skulls...
You ask: "What did you do with him today?"
and you sniff me like I'm a genie.
After all, you are my man, my boy.
You give me your beer and disappear.
And by the time I left the threshold,
You dealt with them like Roger Moore.

I lied to myself

I'm upstairs in bed with my ex-boyfriend.
It's in the right place, but I'm not enjoying it at all.
At the very end I think of you
and then my vibrator comes into play.

I meet you with potatoes and bread...
You say: "When we get married ..."
'Cause you're in a good mood
"...nothing will be left of him..."....
I begged you on the kitchen floor.

I lied to myself
As if I knew that this would happen.
I told you that I would be nothing but trouble.
You know that there is nothing good in me.

Sweet reunion of Spain and Jamaica...
We are with you again, as before.
I'm in the bath and next to you...
You lick your lips while I wash my legs.
Suddenly you notice my knees, peeled on the carpet.
I get cold and everything inside me turns over.
You shrug, but that's the worst part.
Although who stuck the first knife in the back?

I lied to myself
As if I knew that this would happen.
I told you that I would be nothing but trouble.
You know that there is nothing good in me.
I lied to myself
As if I knew that this would happen.
I told you that I would be nothing but trouble.
You know that there is nothing good in me.

I meet you downstairs at the bar and it hurts me...
Your sleeves rolled up and your skull tee...
You ask: "What did you do with him today?"
and sniff me like I'm a genie.
After all, you are my man, my boyfriend.
You hand me your beer and you disappear.
By the time I got out the door
you finished them off like Roger Moore.

I deceived myself

I'm upstairs in bed with my ex-boyfriend.
He's where he needs to be, but I'm not having any fun.
I think of you at the very end
and my vibrator comes into play.

I meet you with potatoes and bread ...
You say: “When we get married….”
because you're in a good mood
“…there will be nothing left of him.”….
I begged you on the kitchen floor.

I deceived myself
like she knew it would.
I told you that I'm nothing but trouble.
You know that there is nothing good in me.

Sweet reunion of Jamaica and Spain...
We are with you again, as in the old days.
I'm in the bath, and you are next ...
Lick your lips while I wash my feet.
Suddenly you notice my knees, torn off on the carpet.
I get cold and my insides turn over.
You shrug and that's the worst part.
But who was the first to stab someone in the back with a knife?

I deceived myself
like she knew it would.
I told you that I'm nothing but trouble.
You know there's nothing good about me...

"Back to Black" was the second and - to the great regret of millions of fans of Amy Winehouse - the last lifetime record of the brilliant singer, who in 2011 joined the infamous "27 Club". One of the tracks of the album was a composition with a telling title “You Know I’m No Good” (“You Know, You Can’t Call Me Good”), the history of which we will talk about in this article.

In an interview with Rolling Stone magazine, she candidly spoke about what became a source of inspiration for her while working on the album:

The songs literally wrote themselves. They are all about the state of my relationship with Blake at the time. I have never felt for anyone what I felt for him.

If you haven't followed Winehouse's personal life, you may not know that Blake Fielder-Civil was Amy's husband. Although the yellow press and the ubiquitous paparazzi tried to make the whole world aware of the betrayals, quarrels and fights of Amy and her husband.

Given the singer's explanation and the specifics of her marriage, there is little doubt that Amy is referring to Blake in "You Know I'm No Good". She confesses to being unfaithful, talks about the assault, and seems genuinely sorry for the pain she and he has caused.

The song refers to episodes that Winehouse talked about in various interviews: how she sobbed, lying on the kitchen floor, or how she thought that after the wedding she would finally break up with her ex.

In January 2007, "You Know I'm No Good" was released as the second single from "Back to Black". It was also released as a remix by Wu-Tang's Ghostface Killah.

The music video for "You Know I'm No Good" was directed by Phil Griffin. Let's watch this video and also listen to the song performed by Arctic Monkeys.

Interesting Facts

• The bass guitar part used in the composition is allegedly borrowed from "Jump Around" by House of Pain.
• The song mentions Roger Moore. More likely, we are talking about the famous British actor who played James Bond. He himself said that he had no idea why Amy chose him, and suggested that the name simply rhymed well. It is possible that this is not a movie star, but a music critic who harshly criticized Winehouse's first album.
• The authoritative edition of Entertainment Weekly recognized "You Know I'm No Good" as the second best song 2007 (after Rihanna's "Umbrella").

In an interview with Rolling Stone magazine, the singer frankly told what became her source of inspiration while working on the album "Back to Black":

"The songs literally wrote themselves. They're all about the state of my relationship with Blake at the time. I've never felt for anyone the way I felt for him."

If you haven't followed Winehouse's personal life, you may not know that Blake Fielder-Civil was Amy's husband. Although the yellow press and the ubiquitous paparazzi tried to make the whole world aware of the betrayals, quarrels and fights of Amy and her husband.
Taking into account the singer's explanations and the peculiarities of her marriage, there is hardly any doubt that in the song "You Know I" m No Good "Amy refers to Blake. She admits to infidelity, talks about the assault and seems to be sincerely sorry for causing him and pain to itself.
The song refers to episodes that Winehouse talked about in various interviews: how she sobbed, lying on the kitchen floor, or how she thought that after the wedding she would finally break up with her ex.

In one of the pubs, Amy meets the love of her life and future husband, Blake Fielder-Civil. Their sadomasochistic relationship would be tabloid fodder, he would introduce her to crack and heroin. They will hurt each other - both physical and moral. At the same time, almost all the songs from the second and last lifetime album Back to Black, for which Amy was nominated for six Grammys and gained worldwide fame, are about him.
. . .
"You know that I'm no good", one of best songs from the second album, talks about the pain and some fatalistic drive of Winehouse's self-destruction much better than a few documentaries. "I cheated myself like I knew I would" could have been written on her tombstone.

This song (1st verse) sounds at the beginning of the film "Life as We Know It" (Life as We Know It, 2010).

=============

You Know I'm No Good (docking the mad dog translation)

We ran into you at the bar, damn!
You roll up your sleeves and go.
Said, "Were you with him today? Hey?!"
Sniffed me like a Tanqueray genie.

"Well, what are you, my dear, my only one,
keep your star and go home.
It takes me a couple of steps from the door,
you're like Roger Moore, tearing me to pieces!"

I lied to myself
and me again
I'll change and lie again...
I told you
from me only problems
I am no better than other skins.

I was upstairs in bed with my ex.
He was really good, but the buzz didn't work out.
About you my thoughts, and that I'm a bitch.
And the call worked. What anguish!

Everything, run, meet you - chips and pita.
You say: "There will be a wedding,
no bitter drink...
So that I don’t hear about your ex anymore.”
I sobbed in the kitchen. So it happened, so it happened...

I lied to myself
and me again
I'll change and lie again...
I told you
from me only problems
I am no better than other skins.

Spain again friends with Jamaica
you are by my side, I am by your side.
I climbed into the bath, you sat on a chair,
licked your lips, you wanted me ...
And that's where you noticed "carpet burn"
I have "everything fell", and it ached in the intestines.
You shrugged your shoulders a little, that's the worst part.
Who will stick the knife in first? Who will be cut?

I lied to myself
and me again
I'll change and lie again...
I told you
from me only problems
I am no better than other skins.

"Interlinear" (for those who want to try their own version literary translation). There is no attempt to keep the rhyme, the approximate size of the lines.

Met you downstairs at the bar, it was painful.
You rolled up the sleeves of your skull T-shirt
You said, "What did you do with him today?"
sniffed me like I was Tanqueray.

"You are my best friend, my boyfriend,
so grab your "star" and fly.
I have to walk out the door
you tear me to pieces like Roger Moore." (stormy scene of jealousy)

I changed myself
and I know it will happen again.

Upstairs in bed with my ex-boyfriend.
He feels fine, but I can't enjoy it.
Even during the final convulsions I think of you
and at this time a "bell" (buzzer) works in me.

Run away to see you. Chips and pita.
You say: "When we are married,
your ex should not be at all.
Because you are not a "burning condiment" (for inciting jealousy).
On the kitchen floor I was crying because of you.

I changed myself
and I know it will happen again.
Told you I'm in trouble.
You knew I'm not a "good girl".

Great reunion, Jamaica and Spain
We (behave) again the way we used to be.
I'm in the bathroom, you sat down
lick your lips while I soak in the water.
Then you notice a "carpet burn" mark.
Everything in my stomach sank, spasms began in the intestines.
Your shoulder twitched, that's the worst sign.
I wonder who will be the first to stab the other with a knife?

I changed myself
and I know it will happen again.
Told you I'm in trouble.
You knew I'm not a "good girl".
