Too much singing for my living tonight
To a song for friends and company
Too much is the matter with the giving on spite
Here's one for the giving and the other for free
The straw that broke the camel's back
Has blown upon my window sill
I may look beaten, but I don't look back
When you break my heart, you feed my will
This should be an Instrumental
But it seems I've made up words
Though they have a way of getting in the way
What a way to be absurd
It's a way of being heard
Ba da, ooh la la laa
Too much is the matter with the giving on spite
Here's one for the giving and the other for free
Too much time for resting easy
Not enough to sleep all night
And the shooting star I take for dreaming
Wakes me down, the doctor's right
Is the doctor ever right?
Oh oh laa, oh-oh oh-laa
Oh-oh oooh, oh oh oh oh
Oh god, I need to swallow you whole again
I gotta mend the old soul again
All I need is some inner peace
Oh god, I need to swallow you whole again
I've gotta mend the old soul again
All I need is some inner peace
Oh, inner peace
Oh-oh ooh, oh oh oh oh
Give the soul a way to fly
Soothe the eyes of memory
Let's give it all for an answer why
If you reach the heaven, the spirit's on me
There's too much singing for my living tonight
To a song for friends and company
Too much is the matter with the giving on spite
Here's one for the giving and the other for free
