Lyrics
TOO MANY COOKS
You can be what you want to
But you've got to choose
If you don't make your mind up
Someone else gonna do it for you
Cho. You've got to be careful
If you're gonna live the way you want
Better learn to go your own way
Too many cooks spoil the broth
Keep your destination
So clearly in mind
If you wait for directions
You might get left behind
Cho.
Too many captains
And not enough crew
It can get confusing
When you don't know who is who
Cho.
Don't get discouraged
By what people say
No matter what happens
They'll keep talkin' anyway
Cho.
