The Clockworks - Enough is Never Enough (Live at Rock Werchter 2024)

Headlining The Slope stage at Rock Werchter Festival, Belgium, July 4 2024.

It was a Tuesday

And it was... bleak

Torn from the wreckage of a broken home

Only knows the love that he was shown

He barges into a café he owns

To bark marching orders

At poor Kitchen Porters

Fresh from the microwave

A sandwich is thrown

On a chipped plate

The kitchen is in a state

There's no need for pruning

When business is blooming

And his grandmother was a proud Filipino

Slips his mind as he

Dips his toes

Into the world of a well-known racist

Who explains it all in words he knows

These fingers were made for pointing

And enough is never enough

The busker boy's chasing the dream

By the beggar with the card machine

And passing by the suit and tie Won’t cast an eye

Too fixated on a screen

And ‘blessed are the meek’

I've heard them say but honestly

There's no romance in poverty

When dinner is a novelty

And these fingers were made for pointing

And enough is never enough

Trudging Galway streets alone

I can't help thinking, not to blame,

Romantic Ireland's dead and gone

It's with O' Leary on a plane

And everybody loves to bitch

Factions speak louder than herds

When rags to riches

Turns wags to witches

Fine feathers don’t make fine birds

These fingers were made for pointing
