|
Getting near the end, now i knew the time was right for a breakdown |
|
Megaton surprise but your eyes never made it a shakedown |
|
Shot you full of rock 'n' roll, couldn't make your soul, |
|
Didn't burn you to the bone |
|
Do what the man says, take the money and run |
|
But, i never saw the splendour |
|
In stealing all your gold, |
|
Taking all your silver |
|
And doing what i'm told |
|
I never saw the tears but i knew you cried for rhythm 'n' blues |
|
Screaming like a wildcat i knew that i had nothing to lose |
|
Shot you full of rock 'n' roll, couldn't make your soul, |
|
Didn't burn you to the bone |
|
Do what the man says, take the money and run |
|
But, i never saw the splendour |
|
In stealing all your gold, |
|
Taking all your silver |
|
And doing what i'm told. |
|
It's just a breakdown, |
|
Breakdown, |
|
Breakdown, |
|
Breakdown |
|
Shaking like a leaf in the wind see me blowing away |
|
Never see me fall on the ground till i've had my say |
|
Shot you full of rock 'n' roll, couldn't make your soul, |
|
Didn't burn you to the bone |
|
Do what the man says, take the money and run |
|
But, i never saw the splendour |
|
In stealing all your gold, |
|
Taking all your silver |
|
And doing what i'm told |
|
It's just a breakdown, |
|
Breakdown, |
|
Breakdown, |
|
It's just a breakdown |
|
Getting near the end, now i knew the time was right for a breakdown |
|
Megaton surprise but your eyes never made it a shakedown |
|
Shot you full of rock 'n' roll, couldn't make your soul, |
|
Didn't burn you to the bone |
|
Do what the man says, take the money and run |
|
But, i never saw the splendour |
|
In stealing all your gold, |
|
Taking all your silver |
|
And doing what i'm told |
|
It's just a breakdown, |
|
Breakdown, |
|
Breakdown, |
|
Breakdown |
