Too Much
Too Much

V1.
In the daily grind it’s hard to find
Enough time to make ends meet
And the raise in my hourly pay
Barely covers the cost to eat.
I’m lucky to have a roof over my head
I should probably say I’m blessed.
But the truth is that I’m real concerned
‘Cos the economy is recessed
Chorus
Too much rising cost of living
Gas too high to fill the tank
Interest rates too high to buy a home
Too little money in the bank
Too much laughing to keep from crying
But I might as well be funny.
Too much stress to sleep at night
And too much month at the end of the money
V2.
The future isn’t looking bright
The stock market’s in free fall
The bears are here for dinner
The bulls backs are against the wall.
Retirement life that I had in sight
Just looks further out of reach
I’ll keep working until my days are done
Instead of lying on a beach
Chorus
Too much rising cost of living
Gas too high to fill the tank
Interest rates too high to buy a home
Too little money in the bank
Too much laughing to keep from crying
But I might as well be funny.
Too much stress to sleep at night
And too much month at the end of the money
Bridge
Everyone keeps watching to see what’s next
There’s more questions than there are answers
And all we get from Washington
Is beaurocratic cancer.
Once upon a time I’m sure we had
Far more insightful leaders
But the view we get from the house on the hill
Is just a bunch of pointing fingers.
Chorus
Too much rising cost of living
Gas too high to fill the tank
Interest rates too high to buy a home
Too little money in the bank
Too much laughing to keep from crying
But I might as well be funny.
Too much stress to sleep at night
And too much month at the end of the money
