SAD FOR ME
(E. Stefani, G. Stefani)
from the album No Doubt

Piano, brass synth and vocals, this charming song was played live at least until 1994. Tony tells a story of a show played at the Glam Slam in 1993 where the crowd of 13,000 people all sat down during the song - which was very strange to see at a rock concert. Miss Fried is a reference to Eric's ex-girlfriend.

Please Miss Fried
He don't mean to be mean
He just needs to leave
He hopes he does not
Cause you inconvenience
Why can't you see?

He said, "please don't be sad for me"

Oh Miss Fried
Please believe you're his queen
He must fight for his dreams
Lovely Miss Fried
He will too miss you
He just needs to be free

He says, "If I should ever cause you to bleed... don't pretend to be naive"
Don't be naive

Don't take him wrong, let him be
Sometimes he feels like he oughta be alone, lone
Don't take him wrong, let him be
Sometimes he feels like he oughta be alone, lone

He says, "Please don't be sad for me,
Please don't be sad for me."
