Verse 1:

Jack:
[spoken]
I had a dream that went something like this:

[sung]
Oh I went to Las Vegas
I hit the big time
I retired at thirty
I was in my prime
I bought a big house
With a lot of land
I bought a heart transplant
For my grandmother

Chorus:

Jack:
It's never enough [x4]

Verse 2:

Millicent:
[spoken]
I had a dream that went something like this:

[sung]
I searched for God
I went to seminary
I rose through the ranks
I became the Pope
I reformed the church
I made restitution
For the Inquisition
And all the sex abuse

Chorus:

Millicent:
It's never enough [x8]

Verse 3:

Michael:
[spoken]
I had a dream that went something like this:

[sung]
I ran for President
Of the USA
I won by a landslide
In a clean campaign
I waned us of fossil fuels
I eliminated poverty
I outlawed greed
I delcared world peace

Chorus:

Michael:
It's never enough [x8]

Verse 4:

Michael:
I walked to the store
The sun was shining
I wore my favorite shoes
And my favorite hat
I looked at the avocados
99 plus tax
I had a dollar in my pocket
So I bought a bananat

Chorus:

Michael:
It's never enough [x8]

Guitar solo

Chorus:

Millicent:
It's never enough [x8]

Verse 5:

Jack:
Oh I met the perfect woman
It was love at first sight
She was a blonde bombshell
With a PhD
We got married in the Andes
The sex is out of sight
We have seven lovely children
She's my secret to success

Chorus:

Jack:
It's never enough [x8]

Chorus:

All:
It's never enough [x8]
