It's All Too Much |
Some days I can’t get started |
Wondering which shoe to put on first |
Or should I brush my teeth |
Before or after I put on my shirt |
So many big decisions |
Boiled or scrambled, fried or even raw |
I’m so damn open-minded |
Used to think I’m lucky but I’m cursed |
I hate this supermarket |
But I have to say it makes me think |
A hundred mineral waters |
It’s fun to guess which ones are safe to drink |
Two hundred brands of cookies |
87 kinds of chocolate chip |
They say that choice is freedom |
I’m so free it drives me to the brink |
And you know why — it’s all too much |
It’s all too much for me to bear |
What kind of shampoo suits my hair |
It’s all too much (1) for me to do (1) |
Especially without you |
Won’t you please come home |
Honey please come home |
I read the morning paper |
But it all changes by the evening news |
The world got so much smaller |
I don’t know which piece of it to choose |
I’d like to fight apartheid |
Wish that I could fight the guy upstairs |
I’d solve a dozen cases |
If only there weren’t so many clues |
What shall we do this evening |
Send out for some sushi and champagne |
Stay in and watch TV |
50 channels can’t all be the same |
Maybe go to a movie |
50 films on 50 tiny screens |
They say that choice is freedom |
I’m so free it’s driving me insane |
And you know why — it’s all too much |
It’s all too much for me to stand |
So much supply and no demand |
There’s just too much (2) to struggle throu (2) |
Especially without you |
Won’t you please come home |
Honey please come home |
I’d like to get to know |
All the many people I could be |
If I just had the time |
I’m sure I could find out which one is me |
Maybe I need religion |
Or meditation 'til I disappear |
They say that choice is freedom |
I’m so free I’m stuck in therapy |
And you know why — it’s all too much |
It’s all too much for me to take |
Try to be real, feel like a fake |
It’s all too much to follow thru |
Especially without you |
Please come home |
Honey please come home |
Won’t you please come home |
