WRITTEN BY KEVIN BACON, MICHAEL BACON 

 

She woke me up late last night 

She said something don't feel right 

I think it would be best for me 

To get this off my chest you see 

Way back in eighty-two 

Around the time I first met you 

He didn't even mean a thing  

A silly fling 

And she said 

I'm not attracted to those muscle-bound guys 

And she said I prefer a man who's more your size 

And he had a swollen wallet and a swollen head 

There's more to life than being good in bed 

 

CHORUS 

Too Much Information  

No I was not aware 

Too Much Information  

What makes you think I care 

I could have made it through this day 

Feeling perfectly O.K. 

Having never heard a single word 

That you just chose to say 

Too Much Information  

 

Now he said man it is so weird 

Weird that I should see you here 

'Cause I was just about to write  

Now we're face to face tonight 

At your audition yesterday 

You just blew us all away 

So much style and so much grace 

And what a face 

And he said 

You found the humor and the sadness there 

And he said you got the accent you got the hair 

And he said you've got the soul and you've got the heart 

And by the way 

You didn't get the part 

 

CHORUS 

 

Ooo don't you send that information my way 

I've had a blow-out on the information highway 

'Cause I'm not Sigmund Freud 

I'm not Carl Jung 

You can keep it on your mind 

But keep it off your tongue 

'Cause I don't want your cross it's more that I can bear 

Let it be my loss what makes you think I care 

I could have made it through this day 

Feeling perfectly O.K. 

Having never heard a single word 

That you just chose to say 

Too Much Information 

 

And I said I don't read reviews 

Because they just give me the blues 

When they're bad they're really rough  

When they're good they're not good enough 

They said this one you should read 

Because we all agreed you need 

A little bright spot in your day 

My day was gray I said O.K. 

The critic said 

This music was a nice surprise 

The critic said I did not expect to like these guys 

And he said clever lyrics and an awesome band 

But there's this one song that I can't stand 

Too Much Information 

I really hate that song 

Too Much Information 

Somebody give them the gong 

Too Much Information 

Hated that one a lot 

Too Much Information 

Lennon-McCartney they're not 

Too Much Information 

It had me seeing red 

Too Much Information 

Stick to the movies instead 

Too Much Information 

What an annoying song 

Too Much Information 

Even the ending's too long 

I could have made it through this day 

Feeling perfectly O.K. 

Having never heard a single word 

That you just chose to say 

Too Much Information
