Too Much of Nothing

[Verse 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
Ah, when there's 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

[Verse 2]
Too much of nothin' can make a man abuse a king
He can walk the streets and boast like most (Walk the streets)
But he don't know a thing
It's all been done before, it's all been written in the book (Now)
But when it's too much of nothin', nobody should look

[Chorus]
Say hello to Valerie, say hello to Marion
Send them all my salary on the waters of oblivion

[Verse 3]
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
Everybody's doin' somethin', I heard it in a dream
But when it's too much of nothin', it just makes a fella mean

[Chorus]
Say hello to Valerie, say hello to Marion
Send them all my salary on the waters of oblivion
