Songtext Too much of nothing Peter, Paul & Mary

Too much of nothing

Too much of nothin can make a man feel ill at ease
One mans temper might rise, while the other mans temper might freeze.
In the days of long confessions, we can not mock a soul
When theres too much of nothin, no one has control.

(chorus)
Say hello to valerie, say hello to marion,
Send them all my salary, on the waters of oblivion.

Too much of nothin can make a man abuse a king
He can walk the streets and boast like most but he dont know a thing.
Its all been done before, its all been written in the book.
But when its too much of nothin, nobody should look.

(chorus)

Too much of nothin can turn a man into a liar
It can cause some man to sleep on nails, another man to eat fire.
Everybodys doin somethin, I heard it in a dream
But when its too much of nothin, it just makes a fella mean.

(chorus)
