You’re Not Good Enough (never ever)

[Verse 1]
Oh darling, have you seen the mirror lately?
Such a pretty face, but slightly… overstately.
Your thighs don’t gap, your pores don’t glow,
Your smoothie’s not organic though.
You said you’d try that keto thing—
But carbs still call and you still sing.

Your hair’s too flat, your brows too thin,
You should detox your messy skin.
Ten thousand steps? You walked just four.
Gym selfies get you wanting more.
You slept eight hours? That’s quite indulgent.
Real winners wake up feeling urgent.

[Pre-Chorus]
But don’t you worry, sweetie pie,
There’s just a million things to try—

[Chorus]
You’re not good enough,
Not thin enough, not rich enough, not tough enough.
You’re not good enough,
Not smart enough, not fit enough, not quick enough.
With a little more discipline and a better attitude—
You might be almost passable, if you really conclude:
You’re not good enough.

[Verse 2]
Only sixty hours worked this week?
Oh honey, ambition’s looking weak.
Your inbox isn’t zeroed out,
Your side hustle? I have my doubt.
You posted late, the algorithm wept,
Your brand coherence? Overslept.

Your kitchen tiles are slightly dull,
That eco spray’s not powerful.
The other moms make sourdough art,
Your loaf collapsed. That’s not a start.
Still renting? Haven’t bought a place?
At thirty-five? Oh. Brace.

[Pre-Chorus]
Comparison is such a gift—
It gives your lazy soul a lift.

[Chorus]
You’re not good enough,
Not clean enough, not keen enough, not seen enough.
You’re not good enough,
Not woke enough, bespoke enough, provoked enough.
There’s a podcast saying optimize your gratitude—
While grinding harder, smiling softer, fixing your mood.
You’re not good enough.

[Bridge – spoken, sweetly]
Have you tried being more mindful?
But also more driven.
More present with your children—
But less distracted, more forgiven.
Eat local, think global, stay humble, stand tall.
Be sexy, not sexual. Be nothing at all.

[Soft Chorus]
You’re not good enough,
Not young enough, not calm enough, not fun enough.
You’re not good enough,
Not healed enough, not real enough, not done enough.

[Verse 3]
Your partner’s ex does yoga live,
She journals daily, learns to forgive.
Your friends all meditate at dawn,
You hit snooze twice and then yawn.

You should invest, you should expand,
Learn coding, join a cover band.
Freeze your eggs, but don’t delay,
Travel more, but save your pay.

Smile wider, age with grace,
Erase each wrinkle from your face.
And if you fail—well, don’t complain.
Self-love’s a product. Buy again.

[Big Chorus]
You’re not good enough,
Not bold enough, not sold enough, not gold enough.
You’re not good enough,
Not fast enough, not vast enough, not cast enough.
If you’d just improve in every single way—
There’d be something new tomorrow you must fix anyway.

You’re not good enough.
No, you’re not good enough.
But keep on trying, darling—
You’re not good enough.

[Outro – bright, smiling]
Subscribe, comply, apply, reply—
Improve yourself before you die.
We say it ‘cause we care so much—
You’re not good enough.
