Can't Get Enough
U.D.O. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Again it's around seven
I'm burning like a candlelight
I don't know where I'm going
But I'm ready for this night

You'd better run for cover
Before I start to smile
No way there's time for wasting
Never walk in a line
Never walk in a line
Oh yeah

And I just keep going
Forget these boring times
And I'm hungry for desire
No way to live in a line

You'd better run for cover
Before I start to smile
No way there's time for wasting
Never walk in a line

Reckless and mean I'm ruling the scene - I never get enough
Acting the night - I'm gone with the light - I can't
get enough
I never get enough

Again it's around seven
I'm burning like a candlelight
I don't know where I'm going
But I'm ready for this night

Reckless and mean I'm ruling the scene - I never get enough
Acting the night - I'm gone with the light - I can't
get enough

Reckless and mean I'm ruling the scene - I never get enough
Acting the night - I'm gone with the light - I can't




get enough
I never get enough
