The Tattered Rhapsodies - It Was Never Enough Lyrics

She was pleasant under glass
Kept her foot on the gas
She was a black lightning storm a brewin'
She danced the twist of fate
She never cleaned her slate
She hitched a ride on the road to ruin

She was everything at once but it was never enough

She ate the curry favor
In the daily flavor
Courted different spheres of influence
She would promise you this and she would promise you that but she was never promiscuous

She was everything at once but it was never enough
She was everything at once but it was never enough

Well she adored the pressure
Kept the band together
While she confounded all the critics
She made up pompous quotes
For the liner notes
She kept the rights to all the lyrics

She was everything at once but it was never enough

She could find the clown in every one-horse town
She could make him sign the confession
She could keep the beat from her catbird seat
She would never take any questions

She was everything at once but it was never enough
She was everything at once but it was never enough

Well she met a man, let's call him Dollar Dan
And he came in tens and twenties
She moved into his home, picked him to the bone
Pretty soon there wasn't any

She was everything at once but it was never enough

Dear old Dan's estate could not appreciate
So his banker came a knocking
But she was on a plane to Portugal or Spain
With a plunder that was shocking

She was everything at once but it was never enough
She was everything at once but it was never enough
