Nothing is Good Enough - Remastered 2020
"Once upon a time" is how it always goes
But I'll make it brief
What was started out with such excitement
Now I'd gladly end with relief
In what now has become a familiar motif
That nothing is good enough
For people like you
Who have to have someone take the fall
And something to sabotage
Determined to lose it all
Critics at their worst could never criticize
The way that you do
No, there's no one else, I find
To undermine or dash a hope quite like you
And you do it so casually, too
'Cause nothing is good enough
For people like you
Who have to have someone take the fall
And something to sabotage
Determined to lose it all
Ladies and gentlemen
Here's exhibit A
Didn't I try again?
And did the effort pay?
Wouldn't a smarter man
Simply walk away?
It doesn't really help that you can never say
What you're looking for
But you'll know it when you hear it
Know it when you see it walk through the door
So you say
So you've said many times before
But nothing is good enough
For people like you
Who have to have someone take the fall
And something to sabotage
Determined to lose it all
Nothing is good enough
But I'll make it brief
What was started out with such excitement
Now I'd gladly end with relief
In what now has become a familiar motif
That nothing is good enough
For people like you
Who have to have someone take the fall
And something to sabotage
Determined to lose it all
Critics at their worst could never criticize
The way that you do
No, there's no one else, I find
To undermine or dash a hope quite like you
And you do it so casually, too
'Cause nothing is good enough
For people like you
Who have to have someone take the fall
And something to sabotage
Determined to lose it all
Ladies and gentlemen
Here's exhibit A
Didn't I try again?
And did the effort pay?
Wouldn't a smarter man
Simply walk away?
It doesn't really help that you can never say
What you're looking for
But you'll know it when you hear it
Know it when you see it walk through the door
So you say
So you've said many times before
But nothing is good enough
For people like you
Who have to have someone take the fall
And something to sabotage
Determined to lose it all
Nothing is good enough
