Twelve hours a day ain't such a long time

It's only a means to an end

He thinks that his pay will buy her devotion

But he's only payin' for her to pretend

What more can he do but give her his heart

Wrapped up in a love so sincere

Lookin' around at all that they have

It seems clear



That it's never enough, never never enough

Why is all that we have simply never enough?

No it's never enough, never never enough

It's so sad

Is anything ever enough?



She ran out of time for people who loved her

Their love couldn't get her nowhere

Isn't it sad she started collecting

Friends who are strangers but she doesn't care

Surrounding herself with phonies and fools

Who tell her what she wants to hear

Looking around at all that they have it seems clear



That it's never enough, never never enough

Why is all that we have simply never enough?

No it's never enough, never never enough

It's so sad

Is anything ever enough?



Why must we want so much more than we have?

Will we never be satisfied?

Just look around

How can we feel so denied?



But it's never enough, never never enough

Why is all that we have simply never enough?

No, it's never enough, never never enough

It's so sad

Is anything ever enough?

Enough
