From the recordings Spicy, Classy, (and a little) Sassy - Digital Download and Enough
"ENOUGH!" is a vibrant, funky anthem that captures the chaos of modern life, blending the exhaustion of the political season with the relatable frustrations of everyday relationships and the challenges of parenting a teenager. The song's clever lyrics by Jamie Shew offer a humorous yet poignant reflection on how we navigate these overlapping stressors and ultimately realize that love and kindness is what’s most important in life. Featuring a stellar lineup of musicians, including Kait Dunton on the soulful Hammond B3 Organ and Rhodes, Mike Scott on guitar, Lyman Medeiros on bass, and Mark Ferber on drums, the track pulses with infectious grooves that invite listeners to dance while they think. Drawing inspiration from the funky rhythm of James Brown’s “Get Up,” the playful nature of Laila Biali’s “Sugar,” the opposites attract vibe of Lawrence’s “I’m Confident I’m Insecure,” and the clever storytelling flair of Billy Joel’s “We Didn’t Start The Fire,” “ENOUGH!” delivers a catchy, thought-provoking experience that resonates across generations. It's a call to embrace our collective frustrations and find joy amidst the madness!
Lyrics
Enough!
Of the backstabbing, backgamming, back way of understanding.
Over worked, under paid, throwin’ all that mad shade.
Enough!
Of the hypocrite, your unfit, hearing all the phony wit. This and that, here and stay. I’m gonna do it anyway!
Well you can talk the talk but you don’t walk the walk………..Enough!
Enough!
Of those tired eyes, worn out cries, in disguise, oh so wise. It don’t matter, where’s your manners, stop the chatter!
Enough!
Negotiate, liberate, manipulate, speculate, don’t hesitate, you’re too late, thinking you’re a dictate.
Look it up, that’s a fact, oh you better clean your act….Enough!
Enough!...
Of complacency, infamy, please…. follow me, dramatic faces, gossip chases, can’t stand those rumor spaces.
Enough!...
Of the stupid fans, all the bans, grifting plans, violent stands. Get around, falling down, don’t be such a rebound!
Pack it up pack it in…….let us now begin
Oh, mirror mirror on the wall, who’s the less evil of them all?
Enough!
Where’s the church and where’s the steeple open the door and see all the people!
The one thing that we need now is love (repeats)
Enough!
