two much: dave matthews
lyrical changes: mattm :wink:

straight in
suck up and go
cool it
swallow…swallow
n breathe deep
take it all
cuz it comes cheap
push it through the door
cuz in between the lines
i'm gonna
pack more lines
so i can get that thing

ooh…damn
traffic jam
got more cars
than a beach got sand
suck it up…suck it up
luck it up…fill it up
until no more

i'm no crazy creep
i've got it cummin to me
cuz i'm not satisfied
my hunger keeps on growin

i think too much
i drink too much
i want too much
too much

I gotta get it somewhere
i mean…you never know
maybe you're dreaming
who do you think you're watchin
who do you think you need
play for me…play more,
ten times in the same day
i need more
i'm goin over my borders
i'm gonna take more
more of you
better and better

i think too much
i drink too much
i feed too much
too much

i told God
i'm coming
to your country
i'm gonna eat up your cities
your homes…you know?
i've got a stomach full
and this here chip
on my shoulder
i've got this growl in my tummy
and i'm gonna stop it today

i think too much
i drink too much
i take too much
too much

suck it suck…suck it up
fuck it up…fuck it up…fuck it up
yeah
suck it up….suck it up…suck it up
suck it up…eat it up…lick it up
baby

i think too much
i drink too much
i cum too much
too much

i think its cool to change lyrics a little bit,,,just to personalize your performance. dave does it all the time. i personally wouldn't change the chorus, or use cum as much...specially for a school talent show. hahaha. :lol:

I'm all about tweaking songs here and there. If you're doing a cover then you should feel free to take a little creative interpretation.

The only criticism I would offer on your rendition of Too Much is to drop the "cum too much" line. Even though this is one of Dave's edgier (sic...maybe) I think it skews the poetics of the song and makes it more of a cheap two dollar hooker......

....pun not intended.

Just my opinion, take it as you will.

Peace,

Yeah, there you go, I just don't like the idea of bodily fluids in my music........ESPECIALLY in my DMB.

i totally hear ya. i realized the crudeness was a bit over the top.

but ya know, dave makes these references often, though subtly.

like in Crash...."i come into you"

what do you think he's sayin?

so yeah. subtly is the key. i was not striving for it in this rendition. but i generally agree with y'all.

...just curious as to what responses would follow. all good 1

"i cum too much"

is that even possible?

Actually, I agree with the changing it and "making it your own." That's vital. But, uh, yours was kinda...er...profane? I can't think of a really good term.

Here is my little dozy for you "Hank your skirt a little more, and show your fur to me"also " Germinate we will, Cause summer is long and hott for summer hey we die off 2 by 2 to be sure we come back next summer, these leaves we have" God Im drunk right now!

lol.... so funny to hear that my changes seemed profane. except for the very last chorus change, i don't think it's profane at all

it was sort of a joke anyways

but again, Dave makes very sexual references often, though not so directly ...which is why it doesn't seem so outrageous.

another example:

"lovely lady, can i drink you please? i won't spill a drop, oh i promise you"

ya think he's speaking about cunnilingus? duh

so, the point is, bodily fluids and sexual comments are standard parts of his songs. but since Dave says it, we all like it. but when someone else does ...it sounds crude.

go figure

lol
