Too Much Time On My Hands
Written by Tommy Shaw
Lead Vocals 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 cruisin' 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 genius - I can solve 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
(He's 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 at 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

That's a good song.
That one and James Young's Snowblind from Paradise Theatre kick classic rock ass.

According to your score, you seem to have a rather short attention span. You tend to have a great deal of difficulty maintaining your focus on a task and following it through until completion. People who have short attention spans tend to jump from project to project and are often known to be quite disorganized. This frequently results in missed deadlines, tardiness, and bills being paid late. An inability to pay attention for an extended period of time could be a result of fatigue, a medication side-effect, or you may simply have a personal issue weighing heavily on your mind. However, it would be a good idea to visit a psychologist in order to assess whether Attention Deficit Disorder may be an issue.

Hahahaha, my score was 24/100

EDIT: Score: 59/100 (and I bought Rather Ripped with Helen Lundeberg as a bonus track included on the CD)

ADD for everyone!!! (Fuck you)

Daycare Nation 11.07.2006 09:57 PM

So far I've beat you all. If you could pay attention as well as I can, you would all LOVE Rather Ripped.

k-krack 11.07.2006 10:02 PM

I do love Rather Ripped. I just apparently don't have much of an "attention span."

You seem to have scored on the high end so far.

k-krack 11.07.2006 10:16 PM

61? That's kinda high on the lower span side.
