Have You Had Enough?
Fastbacks Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It isn't fair, and it doesn't care
Nothing goes the way you wanted to
Nothing new and nothing else to do now
And when you've had enough
You can call me up
Have you had enough?
You can call me up!
Wasting time and being tired
We're also tired of being tired of
Wasting time this precious time
