There Are Too Many of Us Lyrics
Blur
[Verse 1]:
There are too many of us
That's plain to see
We all believe in praying
For our immortality
We've posed these questions to our children
Across the mountain stream
And live in tiny houses
Of the same mistakes we've made
[Chorus]:
Cause there are too many of us
In tiny houses here and there
Passing out somewhere
But you won't care
[Verse 2]:
There are too many of us
That's plain to see
We all believe in praying
For our immortality
For a moment I was dislocated
My terror on the loop, elsewhere
Flashing lights are vacating
On the big screens everywhere
[Chorus]
[Outro]:
There are too many of us
In tiny houses, here and there
All looking through the windows
On everything we share
We pose these questions to our children
Leave the mountain stream
And live in tiny houses
Of the same mistakes we make
There are too many of us
Oh, that's plain to see
All living in tiny houses
About our immortality
[Hook]
There are too many of us
That's plain to see
We all believe in praying
For our immortality
[Verse 1]
We've posed these questions to our children
Across the mountain stream
And live in tiny houses
Of the same mistakes we've made
[Chorus]
Cause there are too many of us
In tiny houses here and there
Passing out somewhere
But you won't care
[Hook]
[Verse 2]
For a moment I was dislocated
My terror on the loop, I swear
Flashing lights are vacating
On the big screens everywhere
[Chorus]
[Hook]
There are too many of us
In tiny houses, here and there
All looking through the windows
On everything we share
[Verse 3]
We pose these questions to our children
Leave the mountain stream
And live in tiny houses
Of the same mistakes we make
[Hook]
There are too many of us
Oh, that's plain to see
All living in tiny houses
About our immortality
There are too many of us
That's plain to see
We all believe in praying
For our immortality
We've posed these questions to our children
Across the mountain stream
And live in tiny houses
Of the same mistakes we've made
[Chorus]:
Cause there are too many of us
In tiny houses here and there
Passing out somewhere
But you won't care
[Verse 2]:
There are too many of us
That's plain to see
We all believe in praying
For our immortality
For a moment I was dislocated
My terror on the loop, elsewhere
Flashing lights are vacating
On the big screens everywhere
[Chorus]
[Outro]:
There are too many of us
In tiny houses, here and there
All looking through the windows
On everything we share
We pose these questions to our children
Leave the mountain stream
And live in tiny houses
Of the same mistakes we make
There are too many of us
Oh, that's plain to see
All living in tiny houses
About our immortality
[Hook]
There are too many of us
That's plain to see
We all believe in praying
For our immortality
[Verse 1]
We've posed these questions to our children

And live in tiny houses
Of the same mistakes we've made

There are too many of us
Oh, that's plain to see
All living in tiny houses
About our immortality
