Lyrics Peter, Paul and Mary

Peter, Paul and Mary

Too Much Of Nothing

1. Too much of nothin' can make a man feel ill at ease

one man's temper might rise

while the other man's temper might freeze

in the days of long confessions we cannot mock a soul

when there's too much of nothin' no one has control.

R: Say hello to Valerie say hello to Marion

send them all my salary on the waters of oblivion.

2. Too much of nothin' can make a man abuse a king

he can walk the streets and boast like most

but he don't know a thing

it's all been done before it's all been written in the book

but when it's too much of nothin' nobody should look.

R:

3. Too much of nothin' can turn a man into a liar

it can cause some man to sleep on nails

the other man to eat fire

everybody's doin' somethin' I heard it in a dream

but when it's too much of nothin' it just makes a fella mean.

R:
