lyrics

Never Enough

It's never enough, is it?
It's just never good enough.
I do my very best to keep you satisfied
And I think maybe this time I'll get it right,
maybe we can celebrate and stuff
But just one look at you and I can see that it isn't good enough,
It isn't good enough, no.

It's never enough, is it?
It's just never fast enough.
Don't dawdle now, my dear, or you'll be left behind
So I pick up the pace, I pick it up, pick it up
Rough it up, rough it up, we're playing rough
But still I find my toes are on the starting line
And you've left me in the dust 'cause I'm never good enough
No I'm never good enough

I am bending over backwards, I am running overtime
I don't need you in my face 'cause I've got you in my mind,
don't you know
Every waking minute of the day and it's laying me low
Suffocating me blue in the face
It's a game that can't be won,
Still you say, “Try again babe, that was fun.”
I should really call your bluff
But I can't seem to get enough.

I'm never enough for you
And so there's never enough for me
Still, somehow you thought that I would stick around
and around and around
But you say there's never enough money
Not enough time or love or joy, well, hey, that's tough.
'Cause frankly, dear, my patience is in short supply
And I have had enough,
I have had enough,
Oh, you know I've had enough.
