Never Is Enough
Barenaked Ladies
What am I to wake up suddenly and then,
Enroll at the local college?
Earn me a degree and I could work weekends.
If I work real hard,
I could mow your backyard.
I could go to Europe, travel with my friends.
I could blow a thousand deutschmarks,
To get drunk in a pub with some Australians.
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 haveta do that stuff.
I never had to spent a summer planting 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.
Telling people what they wanna hear,
Telling people anything to make a sale.
Eating in the food court,
With the old and the bored.
Chorus
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.
Chorus 3x
