Too Much is track four of the 2022 album by The Commoners, Find A Better Way.
Lyrics
Well I’m on my way, I don’t have time
To play your games or waste my life
The morning haze can’t call it mine
So I count the days, til I’m fed up, living this…fed up living this life
I might leave this town forever, no it never gave me much
I like my friends and family better, now this dream’s become a crutch
And it might prove to be too much
If I found a way to spend my time, at better things than collecting dimes
I might say, so-long, goodbye,
To the daily race, I’ve run from all of my… run from all of my life
I might leave this town forever, no it never gave me much
I like my friends and family better, now this dream’s become a crutch
And it might prove..
That something has got to give, I don’t believe the lies
You say that this is it, but maybe, it’s just a matter of time
(Guitar Solo)
(Scream)
I might leave this town forever, yeah I might. ‘Cause it never gave me much. No no no no…
I like my friends and family better, (Scream) now this dream’s become a crutch. Yes it has…
(It might prove to be too much)
Everyday seams to be
(It might prove to be too much)
Oh it might be too much
It might prove… to be too much. Oh yeah
Oh-oh it’s all too much
It might prove to be too much
it’s all too much
Discussion
“Erupting with the growling vigor of an old Beaumont, Too Much drives The Commoners to the brink of surrendering their dreams for the comforts of home. A high horsepower performance peels out with rowdy riffs and lively organ in tow, delivering a relatable sentiment that never proves to be too much.”
–Lauren Campbell | Peter Noble Press Release
“Too Much is a pure pummeling hard rock number, driven forward by a riff of cosmic proportions.”
–Blues Rock Review
“Coming in hard with a blast of slide is ‘Too Much’ that’s got the feel of Free and Reef having a good night out until someone spikes your drink, but you ride it out seated firmly on a pleasantly nagging riff.”
–The Midlands Rocks
