It's Not Enough — The Who

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
