Too Many People
(L. Ransford = Allan Clarke, Tony Hicks & Graham Nash)
Track 6 on album 'The Hollies' september 1965

{intro with 'oh oh oh' choir}

There's a story that I read about in books.
About the bad times that people had.
That's how He planned it,
you can't do nowt about it.
Too many people.

The black plague came along and wiped out quite a few.
The rats came with the graves, that's how we knew.
That's how He planned it.
you can't do nowt about it.
Too many people.

This ain't no story -
no fairy tale.
These things have happened once before.
Ask yourself a question:
"When will it end"`?
There ain't no foolin' death,
so you just gotta sit and wait.

{harmonica interlude}

Too many people.
Too many people.

This ain't no story -
no fairy tale.
These things have happened once before.
Ask yourself a question:
"When will it end"`?
There ain't no foolin' death
so you just gotta sit and wait.

A million people died
in great wars, that we know.
They sacrificed their lives -
just goes to show.
That's how He planned it.
You can't do nowt about it

Too many people (there's too many people)
Too many people (many, many, many, too many many people)
Too many people oh yeah.

{ends with sounds of something falling}
