"Too Much Time on My Hands" is the second single release from Styx's 1981 triple-platinum album Paradise Theatre and reached #9 on the US Billboard Hot 100, and #2 on the Top Rock Tracks chart for one week. It was written and sung by Tommy Shaw, who also plays the lead guitar solo during the break in the song.
