It's not enough

Whatever you give





A little bit more

You always need


A little more man


A little more seed




It's not enough


It's not enough

Whatever I give


It's never enough




I gave you cash


I gave you love


All that I heard

Was "It's Not Enough"





I work so hard

It gets so tough


Whatever I give


Never feels like enough

It's not enough


It's not enough


Whatever I give

It's never enough





When I'm on my knees

I keep taking your stuff


Make sure that you know


It's never enough




You said you'd go as far


As to turn to my friend

Who once warned me of you


Said you'd hasten my end


Because I have lent

Every ounce of my juice


My essence is spent




You'll always want

A little more pink

I'll always need


A little more ink




It's not enough

It's not enough

Whatever I give


It's never enough



However I praise


However I puff

Though you may smile

It won't be enough




Right at the end

When I start to bluff

An' the lift's going down


An' I start acting tough



It's not enough


It's not enough

Whatever I give

It's never enough




I'll find someone else

To finish filling me up

I'll smile and admit


You were never quite enough



Like Brigitte Bardot

In Godard's Les Mepris

I can't love you enough

To make you complete

You appear in my dreams

With some new courtier

You need me there to see

What you need to convey



It's not enough

It's not enough

Whatever I give

It'll never be enough



No hysterical scene

You will never play rough

I'm the one who will scream

But it won't be enough



It's never enough

It's never enough



It's not enough

It's not enough

Whatever I give

It'll never be enough



I'll never hold you

How can I scold you?



It's not enough

It's not enough

Whatever I give

It'll never be enough
