Pop/rock classic of the day: "Too Much Time On My Hands" by Styx (1981) "Too Much Time On My Hands" by Stxy
(wriiten by Tommy Shaw) Sitting on this barstool,talking like a damn fool Got the twelve O'Clock news blues And I've given up hope on the afternoon soaps and a bottle of cold brew Is it any wonder I'm not crazy? Is it any wonder I'm sane at all? Well I'm so tired of losing I got nothing to do and all day to do it I go out cruising but I've no place to go and all night to get there Is it any wonder I'm not a criminal? Is it any wonder I'm not in jail? Is it any wonder I've got... Too much time on my hands,it's ticking away with my sanity I've got too much time on my hands,it's hard to believe such a calamity I've got too much time on my hands,and it's ticking away from me Too much time on my hands Too much time on my hands Too much time on my hands Well,I'm a jet fuel genuis,I solve all the world's problems without even trying I have dozens of friends and the fun never ends That is,as long as I'm buying Is it any wonder I'm not the president? Is it any wonder I'm null and void? Is it any wonder I've got... Too much time on my hands,it's ticking away with my sanity I've got too much time on my hands,it's hard to believe such a calamity I've got too much time on my hands and it's ticking away from me Too much time on my hands (tick tick tick ticking away) Too much time on my hands (and I don't know what to do about it) Too much time on my hands admit it,in 1981,y'all were going nuts over this jam | |

People will say the popularity of MTV killed Styx - but I'll tell you the real reason - THEY SUCK BIGTIME!.
Excuse my outburst but I lived thru the 70's & that gives me the right to say that. | |

To top it off I go home last night & I'm watching Comedy Central & on comes an ad for a local music venue & who is performing in a few weeks but mother retching STYX!!! Why why why won't the 70's just go away??? | |
