Artist/Band: Styx
Lyrics for Song: Too Much Time On My Hands
Lyrics for Album: Babe: Collection [2011]



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


Too Much Time On My Hands

Styx's "Too Much Time On My Hands" stands as a defining track from their 1983 album *Kilroy Was Here*, showcasing the band's signature blend of hard rock and progressive metal. Featuring the iconic vocals of Tommy Shaw and the guitar work of James Young, the song exemplifies the era's shift toward heavier, more complex compositions while maintaining melodic accessibility. It remains a staple of the band's discography, often performed live and recognized for its driving rhythm and anthemic quality. The recording captures the peak of Styx's popularity in the early 1980s, reflecting their ability to balance theatricality with solid songwriting. As a key component of their catalog, it continues to resonate with fans of classic rock and metal, representing a pivotal moment in the group's evolution during the mid-80s.
