[Repeated throughout song in background:]
(Far too many
Much too much) |
[Repeated throughout song in background:]
(Far too many
Much too much) |
There's a fire in the eastern perimeter
There's an alligator in the stew
And everybody who's going to heaven
Would they kindly stand in this queue |
There's a fire in the eastern perimeter
There's an alligator in the stew
And everybody who's going to heaven
Would they kindly stand in this queue |
Because there's far too many
And there's much too much
When the news sinks in holding on to our skin
I only want to give you a touch |
Because there's far too many
And there's much too much
When the news sinks in holding on to our skin
I only want to give you a touch |
At the break of day I was breaking
At the fall of night well I fell
Like a fool I wept as the starbeams crept
Illuminating this hell |
At the break of day I was breaking
At the fall of night well I fell
Like a fool I wept as the starbeams crept
Illuminating this hell |
And there's far too many
And there's much too much
When the news sinks in holding on to our skin
I only want to give you a touch |
And there's far too many
And there's much too much
When the news sinks in holding on to our skin
And I only want to give you a touch (a touch) |
Don't ask me if I'm ready
I'm standing with my ticket in hand
When the boss comes back and he looks at this crack
He sure ain't gonna understand |
Don't ask me if I'm ready
I'm standing with my ticket in hand
When the boss comes back and he looks at this crack
He sure ain't gonna understand |
And there's far too many
And there's much too much
When the news sinks in holding on to our skin
I only want to give you a touch, touch, touch, touch... |
And there's far too many
And there's much too much
When the news sinks in holding on to our skin
I only want to give you a touch, touch, touch, touch... |
And there's far too many
And there's much too much
When the news sinks in holding on to our skin
I only want to give you a touch, touch, touch, touch... |
And there's far too many
And there's much too much
When the news sinks in holding on to our skin
I only want to give you a touch, touch, touch, touch... |
Far too many
Much too much
Far too many
Much too much
Far too many
Much too much
Far too many |
Far too many
Much too much
Far too many
Much too much
Far too many
Much too much
Far too many |
