The Greatest Song...EVER.

Statistician's Blues by Todd Snider

They say 3 percent of the people use 5 to 6 percent of their brains,
97 percent use 3 percent and the rest goes down the drain.
Now, I don't know which one I am, but I'll bet you my last dime
99 percent think we're 3 percent 100 percent of the time.

They say 65 percent of the world's statistics are made up right there on the spot,
82.4 percent of the people believe them whether they are accurate statistics or not.
Now I don't know what you believe but I do know there's no doubt,
I need another shot of something 90 proof I got too much to think about.

Too much to think about,
Too much to figure out,
Stuck between hope and doubt,
It's too much to think about.

They say 74 percent of everything you learned in school was just bullshit you'll never need,
83.4 percent of everything you got you bought to satisfy your greed.
Because 91 percent of the world's population links possessions to success,
Even though 88 percent of the wealthiest one percent of the population drinks to an alarming excess.
More money, more stress.

Too much to think about,
Too much to figure out,
Stuck between hope and doubt,
It's too much to think about.

They say 84 percent of all statisticians truly hate their fuckin' jobs,
The average bank robber lives within 20 miles of the bank that he robs.
There's a little bank not far from here I've been watching now for a while,
Lately all I can think about is how bad I want to go out in style.

Too much to think about,
Too much to figure out,
Stuck between hope and doubt,
It's too much to think about.
Hey, hey,
It's too much to think about.
Amen,
It's too much to think about.
