Too Much of a Good Thing
Words and music by Corinne Curcio and Gwen G.

Me
There are too many books in this house
They take up way too much space
There's no room for me on the couch
Seems I've lost my rightful place

She
But Honey, they're all my friends
Whenever you go away
James Lee Burke the Brontes, Mark Twain
Keep me company every day

She
True, there's no room to cuddle anymore
Me
Not unless I sweep them all out the door

She
Too much of a good thing
Too much of a good thing
When I see a book in the store
I must run in and grab it
One begets two - they reproduce
Like very randy rabbits
Darling I know it's a very bad habit
Yes it's too much of a good thing

Me
Once you read them, must you keep them?
Can't you sell or swap them dear?
I'm afraid my good humor will fade
Please let's get them the hell outta here!

She
I love them too much to give even one away
Me
Soon they'll take over - then where will we stay?

Me
Too much of a good thing
Too much of a good thing
I see them stacked on tabletops
I find them piled on floors
When I pass by I start to cry
Cause there's more and more and more
It's a situation I simply can't ignore
Yes, it's too much of a good thing

She
I'm pining for a shiny new toy
I saw advertised on Amazon
An E Reader that holds hundreds of books
So I can really get my freak on

Me
So I went online and clicked on that link
Now there�¢??s barely a book in sight
With one hand she holds "War and Peace"
And the other she holds me tight

Me
No more stashes in each cranny and nook
She
And I'm no longer a great big book schnook

(both)
Too much of a good thing
Too much of a good thing
If you feel they're taking over
And you're about to drown
From books falling from the shelves
Turning your life upside down
Don't give up - happiness can still be found
An E-Reader is a very good thing
An E-Reader is a very good thing
