Why we'll never please everybody who neatly erases goofs? (6,6,3)
I believe the answer is:
theres always one
'why we'll never please everybody' is the definition.
(there's always one who'll complain)
'who neatly erases goofs?' is the wordplay.
'goofs?' is an anagram indicator (letters goof or mess around).
'who'+'neatly'+'erases'='whoneatlyerases'
'whoneatlyerases' with letters rearranged gives 'THERES ALWAYS ONE'.
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
