The Breakdown by E.L. Cross Lyrics
Well baby it’s the breakdown
Don’t go get yourself down
Cause you know you’re the only girl for me now
But I gotta get myself out of this town
Baby it’s the last night
We all feeling so right
So let’s drink and dance beneath the moonlight
Because tonight’s your night to be alive
So come on take my hand now
Listen to the plan now
Don’t tell me it’s too despicable
Deception is the means for getting off
So come on baby let go
I ain’t gonna ask no more
Give into your heart’s desires
Leave your morals behind for the night
And all the while
You’ll keep singing
You don’t know how to feel right now
If you’re back for more
Will I shut you out
But we both know
You’re coming back tonight
Cause everybody wants it
Everybody wants it, that’s right
That’s right
Yeaaahhh
I’ll have a rum and coke please
How bout some whiskey?
Maybe a jack or a bud or some jim bean
I need to get away
From the day
Down a whiskey sour, give me an hour
Before I find myself a girl now
But I sleep tonight, with the toilet by my side
‘Cause we all love the lime light
We all love to feel all-right
Even if it takes all night
The only way to go is going hard
But baby in the breakdown there’s so much at stake now
Come on take my hand you’ll be just fine
Let go inhibition for the night
And all the while, you’ll keep singing
You don’t know how to feel right now
If you beg for more
Will I shut you out
But we both know
You’re coming back tonight
Cause everybody wants it
Everybody wants it that’s right
Baby it’s the breakdown
Don’t go get yourself down
Cause you know that I’m lying through my teeth now
But I gotta get
Myself out of town
Swear she’s gonna kill me
If she ever finds me
But my real name ain’t found on no fake I.D.
The game is done
Well for the night
Baby in the breakdown
I gotta escape now
Cause soon everything comes crumbling down
My empire collapses to the ground
But I do love the limelight
I just wanna feel all right
Take a deep breath and I’ll find
I’ve let go a little too much
This time
And all the while
I’ll keep singing
I don’t know how to feel right now
If I beg for more
Will you shut me out
We both know
I’m coming back tonight
Cause everybody wants it
Everybody wants it that’s right
You don’t know how to feel right now
If you beg for more
Will I shut you out
But we both know
You’re coming back tonight
Cause everybody wants it
Everybody wants it that’s right
Don’t go get yourself down
Cause you know you’re the only girl for me now
But I gotta get myself out of this town
Baby it’s the last night
We all feeling so right
So let’s drink and dance beneath the moonlight
Because tonight’s your night to be alive
So come on take my hand now
Listen to the plan now
Don’t tell me it’s too despicable
Deception is the means for getting off
So come on baby let go
I ain’t gonna ask no more
