Barenaked Ladies
Never Is Enough
[Verse 1]
What, am I to wake up suddenly and then
Enroll at the local college, earn me a degree
And I could work weekends?
[Pre-Chorus 1]
If I work real hard
I could mow your backyard
[Verse 2]
I could go to Europe, travel with my friends
I could blow a thousand deutsche marks
To get drunk in a pub with some Australians
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Buy a giant backpack
Sew a flag on the back
[Chorus]
I think never is enough (Yeah, never is enough)
I never wanna do that stuff
I think never is enough (Yeah, never is enough)
You never have to do that stuff
[Verse 3]
I never had to spend a summer plantin' trees
I never worked my way through a forest inch by inch
Doubled over on my hands and knees
I never spent a single day in retail
Tellin' people what they want to hear
Tellin' people anything to make a sale
[Pre-Chorus 3]
Eating in the food court
With the old and the bored
[Chorus]
I think never is enough (Yeah, never is enough)
I never wanna do that stuff
I think never is enough (Yeah, never is enough)
You never have to do that stuff
[Bridge]
The world's your oyster shell, so what's that funny smell?
You eat the bivalve anyway, you're sick with salmonella
You get your PhD, how happy you will be
When you get a job at Wendy's
And are honored with employee of the month
[Organ Solo]
[Chorus]
I think never is enough (Yeah, never is enough)
I never wanna do that stuff
I think never is enough (Yeah, never is enough)
You never have to do that stuff
I think never is enough (Yeah, never is enough)
I never wanna do that stuff
I think never is enough (Yeah, never is enough)
You never have to do that stuff
I think never is enough (Yeah, never is enough)
I never wanna do that stuff
I think never is enough (Yeah, never is enough)
You never have to do that stuff
