Too Much Pride: Chris Rea Interview
This is one of those Tuesday morning songs. I call them Tuesday morning songs in as much as there’s no great plan behind it, because I write a song a day and that is exactly what was in my head that morning. It was just somebody who seemed to be completely screwing himself up by having too much pride. And it just comes off, it’s short, snappy, simple. You often get a really good idea for a song and a really good song title, but you’re having an argument or a discussion with somebody and all the time you’re expecting your brain of the obvious and yet suddenly you just tune around and you say to somebody, the only thing wrong with you is you’ve got too much pride. And you go, click, you know, and this is one of those, it is short and simple, what I call a Tuesday morning song.
Chris Rea was interviewed at The Mill Recording Studio, Cookham, Berks on 22nd September 1992 by John Pidgeon.

Say good morning this is your lucky day
Most of your problems they’re gonna slip away
Oh I’m gonna help you, I can show you the way
So give me so time my friend and hear what I say
You got too much pride, too much pride
Drive yourself crazy, you got too much pride
Take a look at the downside anyway that you choose
Out here on the upside you ain’t got nothing to lose
Oh I’m gonna help you, I can show you the way
So give me some time my friend and hear what I say
You got too much pride, too much pride
Drive yourself crazy, you got too much pride
Too much pride it will drive you wild
It will burn your soul, cut you deep inside
Drag you down, get in your way
So take a look my friend listen what I say
You got too much pride, too much pride
Drive yourself crazy, you got too much pride ...
Скажи: «С добрым утром»- пусть будет удачен день твой.
Проблемы твои пусть решаются сами собой.
Помочь мне хотелось бы- лишь показать тебе путь,
Так дай, друг, мне время- и выслушать ты не забудь.
У тебя много спеси, слишком много спеси,
Это выглядит глупо- если так много спеси.
Видишь слабую сторону что бы ты впредь не избрал?
Или сильную сторону- то, что бы ты не потерял?
Помочь мне хотелось бы- лишь показать тебе путь,
Так дай, друг, мне время- и выслушать ты не забудь.
У тебя много спеси, слишком много спеси,
Это выглядит глупо- если так много спеси.
Слишком много спеси- это в дьявола власти,
Это жжёт твою душу, её режет на части.
Возьми себя в руки- продумай свой путь,
И выслушать, друг мой, меня не забудь.
У тебя много спеси, слишком много спеси,
Это выглядит глупо- если так много спеси.
