Raul Malo Too Much (to Handle)
From backstreets to alleys, hills to valleys./ Whether
you're rich or you're poor we're all addicts./ You
can't escape from it by any means/ cus it gets under
your skin and when you sleep it's in your dreams/ See
we all grew up in the fast lane,/ the fast pace, the
last days, the rat race/ where neon lights tellin' us
to change our lives/ and if we do what they do
everything'll be alright./ Buy this! Do like us and
save time./ Work out and watch Dr. Phil at the same
time./ They keep tellin' us how to stay in line/ and
they know as long as the TV's on we'll stay blind./ Cus
it's a nonstop show straight in to your safe home/ with
no chance and no way for you to say no/ so go with the
flow, continue to consume/ cus the day when all we have
is gone will come soon./
Chorus:
It's too much! - And I can't hide from it./
It's too much! - Got my eyes stuck on it./
It's too much! - And I can't run from it./
It's everywhere, all the time.../ (X2)
...and it's like mindcontrol/
cus everybody is constantly under a microscope./
With signs flashin' n' blinkin in our face/
hundred times a minute, every single day./
And we all loved your promises of fortune and glory./
This is fabulous! The machine does the thinkin' for
me!/
Yeah, and it works in a similar way./
Don't have to be awake for more than five minutes a
day./
It's mass hypnosis, a dream of wealth./
By now the people can't even speak for themselves/
but here's your chance! Open your eyes at me./
Just to show you how dramatic the results can be./
Chorus
...in this race for cash/
the big biz chasin' new place and space for ads./
There's gotta be a way of changin' that./
Eat this! You need this! Who's sayin' that?/
Why is it you're only interested of profits?/
Big companies exploitin' the townships/
from South Africa to Lithuania./
From South America to eastern Asia./
They don't need no lies, they want the truth./
That means they don't need your signs, they want food./
While people starvin' you're promoting garbage./
Makin' slaves out of independent farmers./
Shit, the revolution has finally arrived!/
You can get it right here for 29.95./
So call now! Just give me your heart./
You recieve a special bonus, free of charge./
Chorus
