Someone I know had a number of adversities and setbacks at Christmas, inspiring them to say that they had reached the point where they had no more fucks to give.
That in turn inspired someone else known to us to send me a link to a song called “I’ve No More Fucks to Give”.

The Lyrics:
[Intro]
I've tried, tried, tried, and I’ve tried even more
I've cried, cried, cried, and I can't recall what for
I’ve pressed, I've pushed, I've yelled, I've begged
In hopes of some success
But the inevitable fact is that it never will impress!
[Chorus]
I've no more fucks to give
My fucks have runneth dry
I've tried to go fuck shopping but there's no fucks left to buy!
I've no more fucks to give
Though more fucks I’ve tried to get
I’m over my fuck budget, and I'm now in fucking debt!
[Ukulele]
[Pre-Chorus]
I strive, strive, strive, to get everything done
I’ve played by all the rules, but I've very rarely won
I've smiled, I've charmed, I’ve wooed and laughed, alas to no avail
I've run round like a moron, to unequivocally fail!
[Chorus]
I've no more fucks to give
My fuck fuse has just blown
I've been hunting for my fucks all day but they've upped and fucked off home!
I've no more fucks to give
My fuck rations are depleted
I've rallied my fuck army but it's been fucking defeated!
[Post-Chorus]
The effort has just not been worth the time or the expense!
I've exhausted all my energy, for minimal recompense!
The distinct lack of acknowledgement has now begun to gall!
And I've come to realize that I don't give a fuck at all!
[Chorus]
I've no more fucks to give
My fucks have flown away
My fucks are now so fucked off they've refused to fucking stay!
I've no more fucks to give
My fucks have gone insane
They've come back round and passed me while they're fucking off again!
I've no more fucks to give
My fucks have all dissolved
I've planned many projects, but my fucks won't be involved!
I've no more fucks to give
My fucks have all been spent
They've fucked off from the building and I don't know where they went!
[Outro]
I've no more fucks to give!
I've no more fucks to give!
I've no more fucks!
I've no more fucks!
I've no more fucks to give!

Some Youtuber comments:
The fact he's so chill really drives home the point he's reached. If you're getting upset you still have fucks to give.
Very rarely do you hear effective rhymes using "unequivocally" and "recompense" which just adds to this guy's level of genius.
As an "essential" worker I cannot express just how much I LOVE this song
Played this on my last day at the office. While my colleagues were laughing theyre asses, my boss was seriously listening and came to me and asked me if the office really was that bad? I said, yes and no. Last i heard they made some changes in how they handle the employees. All positive.
I am a casual songwriter myself. But this song is genius and deserves to go viral. This live version sounds far better than the official version and it has that genuine audience laughter which makes it even funnier, plus it has far more heart in the performance. This video gives people hope. This song really lifts serious depression and saves lives. Well done.
This guy deserves a Grammy for this.
The anthem of a generation. We are all simply worn out. Thank you for expressing so many of our frustrations. All the best, Sir.
I'm not sure what it says about me that I want this song included in my funeral.
I am a good Christian woman & I never swear---- that said, this song lives rent-free in my head & plays on a loop every time I drop my kids off at school 👌
You, sir, made a tune that will forever echo in the world. You should win Eurovision.
The perfect anthem for our current times
“My fuck rations are depleted, I’ve rallied my fuck army but it’s been fucking defeated”
Possibly the greatest line of any song ever.
I’ll say it, this song got me through my roughest days at college. More than once I had this going on loop while I got an assignment done. Thank you for this song
The song, the voice, his appearance, the venue, just brilliant
This is the happiest sounding song about losing all hope that I’ve ever heard. I love it.
It's decided.. ''no more fucks to give'' is what my gravestone gets engraved with.
This song is the national and possibly worldwide anthem for anyone that works for the general public (retail, restaurant, grocery etc. )
Every once in awhile there comes a song that is so catchy you find yourself singing it over and over and over. I just want to thank you for writing the song right now defines the world.
This needs to be played at my funeral - or I'm not going!
The fact that he does that with a straight face is legendary
Omg, best song ever! I'm a nurse and it's my favourite thing to sing at work! When we get our amount of patients doubled. The patients seem to enjoy it! Haha
The little bounce he does is fucking adorable
The song is truly wonderful, there's no denying that. But can we talk about that majestic beard he's rocking?
"I'm over my fuck budget and now I'm in fucking debt"
God I love that so much
