Some days i can't get started

Wondering which shoe to put on first

Or should i brush my teeth

Before or after i put on my shirt

So many big decisions

Boiled or scrambled, fried or even raw

I'm so damn open-minded

Used to think i'm lucky but i'm cursed



I hate this supermarket

But i have to say it makes me think

A hundred mineral waters

It's fun to guess which ones are safe to drink

Two hundred brands of cookies

87 kinds of chocolate chip

They say that choice is freedom

I'm so free it drives me to the brink



And you know why - it's all too much



It's all too much for me to bear

What kind of shampoo suits my hair

It's all too much to struggle thru

Especially without you

Won't you please come home

Honey please come home



I read the morning paper

But it all changes by the evening news

The world got so much smaller

I don't know which piece of it to choose

I'd like to fight apartheid

Wish that i could fight the guy upstairs

I'd solve a dozen cases

If only there weren't so many clues



What shall we do this evening

Send out for some sushi and champagne

Stay in and watch tv

50 channels can't all be the same

Maybe go to a movie

50 films on 50 tiny screens

They say that choice is freedom

I'm so free it's driving me insane



And you know why - it's all too much



It's all too much for me to stand

So much supply and no demand

There's just too much for me to do

Especially without you

Won't you please come home

Honey please come home



I'd like to get to know

All the many people i could be

If i just had the time

I'm sure i could find out which one is me

Maybe i need religion

Or meditation 'til i disappear

They say that choice is freedom

I'm so free i'm stuck in therapy



And you know why - it's all too much



It's all too much for me to take

Try to be real, feel like a fake

It's all too much to follow thru

Especially without you

Honey please come home

Won't you please come home
