They say 3 percent of the people use 5 to 6 percent of their brain 
                                  B7                  E 
97 percent use 3 percent and the rest goes down the drain 
       A                                 D                A 
I'll never know which one I am but I'll bet you my last dime 
 D                    A               E              A 
99 percent think with 3 percent 100 percent of the time 
 
64 percent of all the world's statistics are made up right there on the spot 
82.4 percent of people believe 'em whether they're accurate statistics or not 
I don't know what you believe but I do know there's no doubt 
I need another double shot of something 90 proof 
I got too much to think about 
 
D             A 
Too much to think about 
D             A 
Too much to figure out 
D      E      F#m         D  
Stuck between hope and doubt 
      A            E     A 
It's too much to think about 
 
They say 92 percent of everything you learned in school was just bullshit you'll never need 
84 percent of everything you got you bought to satisfy your greed 
Because 90 percent of the world's population links possessions to success 
Even though 80 percent of the wealthiest 1 percent of the population 
Drinks to an alarming excess 
More money, more stress 
 
It's too much to think about 
Too much to figure out 
Stuck between hope and doubt 
It's too much to think about 
Pick it now 
 
84 percent of all statisticians truly hate their jobs 
They say the average bank robber lives within say about 20 miles of the bank that he robs 
There's this little bank not far from here I've been watching now for a while 
Lately all I can think about's how bad I wanna go out in style 
 
And it's too much to think about 
Too much to figure out 
Stuck between hope and doubt 
It's too much to think about 
That's right 
It's too much to think about 
Amen 
It's too much to think about 
Mmm hmmm
