Lyrics:

  • Too Much Information
  • --(apologies to Todd. I am 100 percent sure this is not 100 percent correct)

  • So much for the hero in the undertow,
  • Lost his legs, then he toppled down.
  • Now I see the buzzards and the carrion crow;
  • Smell the blood and follow him around.

  • So much for the legend and his dignity,
  • Pulled (stripped) off like a skin and thrown (pulled) away.
  • Now I joint the people and the bloody lust,
  • Staring at the horrible display.

  • Too much information;
  • Now my heart is breaking;
  • I don’t want to see (watch) you go.
  • Too much information
  • Now my heart is shaken,
  • I don’t want to watch you crawl.

  • So much for the leader and his gravitas,
  • Shed off (Running) in a river down the drain.
  • Now I join the people in the populace,
  • Laughing at the pitiful remains.

  • Too much Information
  • Guess I was mistaken,
  • Didn’t need to know your hand.
  • Too much Information
  • Confidence is shaken
  • Didn’t need to know your hand.

  • If you need someone to talk to;
  • I’ll be there for you.
  • If you need someone to fall apart on;
  • I’ll be there too.
  • If you need to pull yourself together;
  • I’ll look away.
  • If you need someone to drop a bomb on;
  • I’m there today.

  • Now I see the pressure start to overflow,
  • Running in a river down your cheek.
  • Now they show the figures and their adding up,
  • Man, it’s been one hell of a week!

  • Too much information
  • Oh (No) my heart is shaken
  • I don’t want to see you fall.
  • Too much information
  • Now my heart is breaking
  • I don’t want to watch you fall.
  • Too much information
  • Mmm, my heart is aching
  • Everyone’s bound to fall (crawl).

  • Too much information
  • Too much information
  • Everybody’s bound to fall.
  • Too much information
  • I don’t want to watch you fall.
  • Too much information’
  • Yeah, my heart is shaking
  • I don’t want to watch you fall.

  • From listening to about half of the available live recordings; it is fair to say the choruses are somewhat flexible—which just adds to the beauty of this song.
