Rolling Stone called “I Ain’t Ever Satisfied” a “note of a more personal agony” and added that it “flourish(es) lean strength, with guitarist David Grissom (replacing longtime Mellencamp ally Larry Crane) proving himself equally capable of power-chord bite and twang-bar atmospherics.”
[Verse 1]
I love the things that scare most folks to death
But I ain't ever satisfied
I'll stay till the end or till I'm gasping for breath
But I ain't ever satisfied
[Chorus]
No, I am never satisfied
[Verse 2]
I can pretty much come and go as I like
But I ain't ever satisfied
Hey, with no bottom line it's hard to know wrong from right
But I ain't ever satisfied
I'll try anything once but then do it to death
But I ain't ever satisfied
I expect the worst but I hope for the best
Oh, I ain't ever satisfied
[Chorus]
Oh, I am never satisfied
No, no, no, no, I am never satisfied
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
Can't get enough, no
Of nothing
[Verse 3]
I've got seven of everything and more in the till
But I ain't ever satisfied
You think this is dangerous stuff, it ain't even a thrill
I ain't ever satisfied
Oh, I am never
No, I am never
I don't know why I ain't ever satisfied
