    Lyrics:
    No joke is funny enough
    no story is gripping enough
    no shared experience nostalgic enough
    yeah nothing’s enough, when you’re not needed anymore
    no break is long enough
    not wallet full enough
    take a moment, realize you’re not enough
    yeah nothing’s enough, when you’re not needed anymore
    you’re not needed anymore (repeat)

    You guys. I'm 55 years old. And I saw dead inside Shuffle in my algorithm. I have been sustaining on a diet of Louis Cole music. And it gets better and better. I am absolutely Blown Away, to the point of emotional music loving tears. I am absolutely ecstatic that I found this dude. And so many awesome people connected to him. It just gets better and better.
