Breakdown

We all come in from the cold

We come down from the wire

And everybody warms themselves to a different fire

When sometimes we get burned

You'd think sometime we'd learn

The one you love

Is the one that should take you higher

You ain't got no one, you better go back out and find her

Just like children hidin' in a closet

Can't tell what's goin' on outside

Sometimes we're so far off the beaten track

We'll get taken for a ride

By a parlor trick or some words of wit

A hidden hand up a sleeve

To think that the one you love could hurt you now

Is a little hard to believe

But everybody, darling, sometimes bites the hand that feeds

When I look around

Everybody always brings me down

Well, is it them or me? Well, I just can't see

But there ain't no peace to be found

But if someone really cared

Well, they'd take the time to spare

A moment to try and understand another one's despair

Remember in this game we call life that no one said it's fair

Breakdown

Let me hear it now

Breakdown

Let me hear it now

Breakdown

Let me hear it now

Get down with yo' bad self

Alright

I've come to know the cold

I think of it as home

When there ain't enough of me to go around

I'd rather be left alone

But if I call you out of habit

I'm out of love and I gotta have it

Would you give it to me if I fit you needs

Like when we both knew we had it

But now the damage's done

And we're back out on the run

Funny how everything was roses

When we held on to the guns

Just because you're winnin'

Don't mean you're the lucky ones

Breakdown

Let me hear it now

Breakdown

Breakdown

Breakdown

Let me hear it now

There goes the Challenger

Being chased by the blue, blue meanies on wheels

The vicious traffic squad cars are after our lone driver

The last American hero

The, the electric sintar

The demi-god

The super driver of the golden west

Two nasty Nazi cars are close behind the beautiful lone driver

The police cars are getting closer

Closer, closer to our soul hero in his soul mobile, yeah, baby

They're about to strike, they gonna get him, smash, rape

The last beautiful free soul on this planet

But it is written

If the evil spirit arms the tiger with claws

Brahman provided wings for the dove

Thus, spake the super guru

Did you hear that?
