TOTO
- Never Enough Lyrics / with translationsSeems the world needs a change in its attitude
It doesn't seem like there's much that a man can do
They try to sell the earth on a wild crusade
Then complain about not bein' paid
How can some people have the nerve
Hell hasn't froze but it's on the verge
It's gone way past the point of greed
How many lifetimes will we need
'Cause it's never enough
They keep on takin' till they take too much
'Cause it's never enough
It won't be long until they run out of luck
We've been bought and sold for a thousand years
And all I got to show is a six pack full of tears
And all the while the fat cats they watch from the hill
Nothin's changed, it never has an' never will
You better strap on your sharpest spurs
For the ride of your life
'Cause it's gonna hurt
You can't say you didn't ask for this
It's too late to find somebody's ass to kick
'Cause it's never enough
They keep on takin' till they take too much
'Cause it's never enough
It won't be long until they run out of luck
[Instrumental break]
Who's got the money and who gets the rent
By the time it's all over
You ain't got a cent
Hey, hey
How can some people have the nerve
Hell hasn't froze but it's on the verge
It's gone way past the point of greed
How many lifetimes will we need
'Cause it's never enough
They keep on takin' till they take too much
'Cause it's never enough
It won't be long until they run out of luck
[repeats 2x]
It doesn't seem like there's much that a man can do
They try to sell the earth on a wild crusade
Then complain about not bein' paid
How can some people have the nerve
Hell hasn't froze but it's on the verge
It's gone way past the point of greed
How many lifetimes will we need
'Cause it's never enough
They keep on takin' till they take too much
'Cause it's never enough
It won't be long until they run out of luck
We've been bought and sold for a thousand years
And all I got to show is a six pack full of tears
And all the while the fat cats they watch from the hill
Nothin's changed, it never has an' never will
You better strap on your sharpest spurs
For the ride of your life
You can't say you didn't ask for this
It's too late to find somebody's ass to kick
'Cause it's never enough
They keep on takin' till they take too much
'Cause it's never enough
It won't be long until they run out of luck
[Instrumental break]
Who's got the money and who gets the rent
By the time it's all over
You ain't got a cent
Hey, hey
How can some people have the nerve
Hell hasn't froze but it's on the verge
It's gone way past the point of greed
How many lifetimes will we need
'Cause it's never enough
They keep on takin' till they take too much
'Cause it's never enough
It won't be long until they run out of luck
