Plenty Is Never Enough (Tenement Halls cover) Lyrics
Come up with me, love
We'll disappear in the evening light
Come up with me, love,
Into a world that's sparkly bright
That's the way it's for me, love
Takes just a little to give me life
That's the way its for me, love
Takes just a touch to drop a stop
On the top of the world
One is just too many, yeah
You know twenty is never enough
You know one is too many, yeah
You know twenty is never enough
Who wouldn't believe, love?
Been like it since the day i was born
You wouldn't believe, love
Stuck in a pod like a poisonous dog
You wouldn't believe, love
Swim down to the bottom and never come up
You wouldn't believe, love
Give my last buck just for
A cup after cup after cup
One is just too many, yeah
You know twenty is never enough
You know hate we got plenty of
It's love that's never enough
One is just too many, yeah
You know twenty is never enough
Lie to me sometime
I'll take you home
Cause it's love to be
Till the day we'll three
We'll spread this seed
In a murdering spree
One is just too many, yeah
You know twenty is never enough
You know hate we got plenty of
It's love that's never enough
You know one is too many, yeah
You know plenty is never enough
You know chores we got plenty of
It's love that's never enough
We'll disappear in the evening light
Come up with me, love,
Into a world that's sparkly bright
That's the way it's for me, love
Takes just a little to give me life
That's the way its for me, love
Takes just a touch to drop a stop
On the top of the world
You know twenty is never enough
You know one is too many, yeah
You know twenty is never enough
Been like it since the day i was born
You wouldn't believe, love
Stuck in a pod like a poisonous dog
You wouldn't believe, love
Swim down to the bottom and never come up
You wouldn't believe, love
Give my last buck just for
A cup after cup after cup
You know twenty is never enough
You know hate we got plenty of
It's love that's never enough
One is just too many, yeah
You know twenty is never enough
I'll take you home
Cause it's love to be
Till the day we'll three
We'll spread this seed
In a murdering spree
You know twenty is never enough
You know hate we got plenty of
It's love that's never enough
You know one is too many, yeah
You know plenty is never enough
You know chores we got plenty of
It's love that's never enough

This shins did a splendid job on this . . . i think the song is about once you have a little of something you love, there's no satiating your want for it. But idk thats just an idea.
it's "come out with me, love" not "come up with me, love"
it's "come out with me, love" not "come up with me, love"
and "just a touch to prop us up on the top of the world. not "just a touch to drop a stop on the top of the world"
and "just a touch to prop us up on the top of the world. not "just a touch to drop a stop on the top of the world"
and "you wouldn't believe, love" not "who wouldn't believe, love"
and "you wouldn't believe, love" not "who wouldn't believe, love"
and "stuck in my paw like a poisonous dart" not "stuck in a pod like a poisonous dog"
and "stuck in my paw like a poisonous dart" not "stuck in a pod like a poisonous dog"
and "let's meet sometime" not "lie to me sometime"
and "let's meet sometime" not "lie to me sometime"
and lastly "drugs" not...
and lastly "drugs" not "chores".
sorry about that, best song in the world at the moment. check out the original by tenement halls. it's really indie, but it's really good.
I prefer the original.
I'm officially addicted to this song. I prefer the original though.
this song is about loving someone and how you can never have enough of them. rather explainable song. personally i think the original isn't as good as the shins version (unpopular opinion, i know haha)
I think this song is about addiction, specifically alchoholism- If your an alchoholic one is too many and after that first one plenty is never enough. Listen to the song again w/ that in mind and you'll see much suppoting this idea including the lines Till the day we'll three/ We'll spread this seed alluding to alchoholism's hereditary nature.
