Too Much Time
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
[chorus:] i got too much time, too much time
I got too much time to be without love
In my life i've got a deep devotion
Wide as the sky and deep as the ocean
Every war that's waged makes me cry
Every bird that goes by gets me high
[spoken: sometimes when it's late and i'm a little bit hungry i heat
Up some old stale beans, open up a can of sardines, eat crackers and
Dreams of somebody to cook for me.]
[repeat chorus, verse and chorus]
