Doo doo doo, doo doo do-doo doo Doo doo doo, doo doo do-doo doo Doo doo doo, doo doo do-doo doo Doo doo doo, doo doo do-doo doo Ah... Doo doo doo, doo doo do-doo doo Doo doo doo, doo doo do-doo doo Well, you say you want to settle now (You say you want to settle now) That it seems about time to get serious And I’m thinking how Your heart keeps breaking down (Doo doo doo, doo doo do-doo doo) If I’m really everything you want (If I’m really everything you want) What’s the reason for the tears and the sorrow? We never talk about it But your heart keeps breaking down (Doo doo doo, doo doo do-doo doo) There’s only a surface to our conversation And very little besides I don’t even know the path to the door you’ve locked How am I ever to get inside? You’re looking for a place to go (You’re looking for a place to go) Where we can be together always It’s a warning sound When your heart keeps breaking down (Doo doo doo, doo doo do-doo doo) You talk as if the future’s come (You talk as if the future’s come) And the sun shines bright in our world forever now But your heart keeps breaking down (Doo doo doo, doo doo do-doo doo) I don’t want to sound like somebody selfish Scrubbing at the writing on the wall When I ponder the outcomes, little appeals It’s not a choice between you and nobody at all Doo doo doo, doo doo do-doo doo Doo doo doo, doo doo do-doo doo Doo doo doo, doo doo do-doo doo Doo doo doo, doo doo do-doo doo Doo doo doo, doo doo do-doo doo Doo doo doo, doo doo do-doo doo Doo doo doo, doo doo do-doo doo Doo doo doo, doo doo do-doo doo I’m trying to find a way to the exit Eggshells wherever I turn It’s only when I look back that I get this Some lessons I just don’t want to learn No, I’m never one to get it right (I’m never one to get it right) The consequences I ought to know by now It’s fine If your heart keeps breaking down (Doo doo doo, doo doo do-doo doo) It could be worse before it gets any better (Could be worse before it gets any better) What other good do I do with my life anyway? It’s alright If your heart keeps breaking down (Doo doo doo, doo doo do-doo doo) I’m not blind, I’ll be here When your heart keeps breaking down (Doo doo doo, doo doo do-doo doo) 'Cause your heart keeps breaking down (Doo do-doo doo)

I saw you on the pub stage, waggling your guitar Like an old dilapidated poodle-metal star You're gonna have somebody's eye out with that (Yes, you are) You're gonna have somebody's eye out with that So do we have to call the health and safety brigade? Why don't you stop and think about the mistakes you've made? You're gonna have somebody's eye out with that (Get off the stack) You're gonna have somebody's eye out with that I think we'd better shut it down before we need the doc You got a little too carried away by the rock, yeah You're gonna have somebody's eye out with that
