lyrics | learn to sing Statistician'sBlues

They say 3% of the people use 5 to 6% of their brains

97% use 3% and the rest goes down the drain

I'll never know which one I am, but I'll bet you my last dime

99% think the 3% 100% of the time

64% of all the world's statistics are made up right there on the spot

82.4% of people believe 'em whether they're accurate statistics or not

I don't know what you believe but I do know there's no doubt

I need another double 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

There's too much to think about

They say 92% of everything you learned in school

Was just bullshit you'll never need

84% of everything you got, you bought to satisfy your greed

Because 90% of the world's population links possessions to success

Even though 80% of the wealthiest 1% 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 figuring out.

84% of all statisticians truly hate their jobs.

They say the average bank robber lives within, say, 20 miles from the bank they robbed.

Just a little bang, not far from here I've been watching for a while

Lately all I can think about is how bad I want to go out in style

And it's too much to think about Too much to figure out

Stuck between hope and doubt It's too much to think about

That's right, too much to think about Too much to think about
