Lyrics and music: Barbara Borgelin
You don’t need him to call you all sorts of names
You don’t need him to bring him anything he claims
You’re getting old but you’re still looking fine
Look at your face, it hardly shows a line
You don’t need him to shout for dinner at six
You don’t need him just ’cause there’s nothing he can’t fix
You’re so grown into him that you can’t see
Your self destruction is destroying me
It’s in vain
when you try to make me understand
Why you put up with all this pain
I would never choose that man
You don’t need him to despise all things you do
You don’t need him, he hardly says I love you too
You stay alive but how long will it last
His sullen moods will make you age so fast
It’s in vain
when you try to make me understand
Why you put up with all this pain
I would never choose that man
You don’t need him to scold you all through the night
You don’t need him to tell you that you’re not that bright
You’re much more worth than him but you don’t know
Tell me why do you fear that he should ever go
It’s in vain
when you try to make me understand
Why you put up with all this pain
I would never choose that man
You don’t need him to let you down all the time
You don’t need him to punish you each time you shine
You’re so close to me and that’s why it hurts
You will never take action with these words
It’s in vain
when you try to make me understand
Why you put up with all this pain
I would never choose that man
It’s in vain
when you try to make me understand
Why you put up with all this pain
I would never choose that man
It’s in vain, it’s in vain, it’s in vain
’cause you don’t need him
