TOO MUCH

James Michael Taylor

TOO MUCH

I’ve heard too much. I’ve seen too much.
Don’t ask me any questions because I know too much.
I’ve read too much. I’ve written too much.

Consider the lilies of the field.
I know exactly how they feel
My mom told me to be like the ant.
Not like the Sluggard, the Grasshopper.
But the Grasshopper’s like the lily. He sows not

Oh, oh, oh. What good is what I know
Oh, oh, oh. What good is what I know

We spend too much. We hurry too much
We say too much. We worry too much

When I was fifteen I knew everything
I was blessed by the bounty of a strait-A brain
You couldn’t fool me and I wouldn’t fool you
Now I know so much I don’t know what to do

I’ve found too much. I’ve lost too much.
Don’t ask me any questions because I know too much
I hurt too much. I cry too much

I eat too much. I sleep too much
Don’t ask me any questions because I know too much
I’ve given too much and I’ve taken too much.
