about

took the title of the record from this song -should be ain’t enough I guess but it ain’t. I take half the solo along with maggie’s pedal steel - stole the a7 from the band and the fuzzed guitar line in the chorus from the archies sugar sugar - thought we’d fade it out somewhere but somehow we just kept going

lyrics

Enough

There's a certain kind of story - this is how it is begun
there's a house that was once a home - it has somehow come undone
probably in the basement there's a skeleton or two
one's someone you don't recognize - the other one is you.

I've been lying to myself, trying to be somebody else
and I love you baby but it ain't enough -
I'm forty four I got all this stuff

The smoke drifts down the valley, spreads out across the town
you can tell - there's a certain smell -
when someone's house is burning down
when the brush gets knee high, one spark is all it takes
in this world everybody's free to make their own mistakes

So let it all go up in flames - kick the dirt over what remains
let the sparks rise and fill the sky -
think a shooting star needs a reason why?
I've been lying to myself, trying to be somebody else
and I love you baby but it ain't enough -
I'm forty four I got all this stuff
and it ain't enough, it ain't enough, it ain't enough

Let's fill up some churches - tear down some governments
Send some kids to the desert to die then wonder why they went
say a prayer to the darkness, the storm clouds overhead
that they might pass on over us and strike someone else instead

Now it's time for the setting sun
to go ahead and finish what's already done
pull the plug and turn out the lights
blow me a kiss and then say goodnight
I've been lying to myself, trying to be somebody else
and I love you and the kids but it ain't enough -
I'm forty four I got all this stuff
So let it all go up in flames - kick the dirt over what remains
let the sparks rise and fill the sky -
think a shooting star needs a reason why?
I've been lying to myself, trying to be somebody else
and I love you baby but it ain't enough -
I'm forty four I got all this stuff
and it ain't enough, it ain't enough, it ain't enough
