INTRO . . .
You�re the kind of per-son you
meet at cer-tain dis--mal dull af-fairs
Cen-tre of a crowd, talk-ing much,
too loud run-ning up and down the stairs
Well it seems to me that you have
seen too much in too few years
And though you�ve tried you just can�t
hide your eyes are edged with tears
You bet-ter stop, look - a-round, -
here it comes, - here it comes,
here it comes, - here it comes,
Here comes your nine-teenth
nerv-ous break-down
When you were a child
you were treat--ed kind
But nev-er brought up right
You were al-ways spoiled
with a thou-sand toys
but still you cried all night
Your moth-er who ne-glec-ted you
owes a mil-lion dol-lars tax
And your fath-er�s still per-fec-ting
ways of mak-ing seal-ing wax
You bet-ter stop, look - a-round, -
here it comes, - here it comes,
here it comes, - here it comes,
Here comes your nine-teenth
nerv-ous break-down
Oh, who�s to blame,
That girl�s drives me in-sane
Well noth-ing I do don�t seem to work,
It on-ly seems to make
mat-ters worse, oh - please - -
You were still in school when
you had that fool who
real--ly messed your mind
And af-ter that you turned
your back on treat-ing peo-ple kind
On our first trip I tried so hard
to re-ar-range your mind
But af-ter a while I re-al-ized
you were dis-ar-rang-ing mine
You bet-ter stop, look - a-round, -
here it comes, - here it comes,
here it comes, - here it comes,
Here comes your nine-teenth
nerv-ous break-down
Oh, who�s to blame,
That girl�s drives me in-sane
Well noth-ing I do don�t seem to work,
It on-ly seems to make
mat-ters worse, oh - please - -
When you were a child
you were treat--ed kind
But nev-er brought up right
You were al-ways spoiled
with a thou-sand toys
but still you cried all night
And your moth-er who ne-glec-ted
you owes a mil-lion dol-lars tax
And your fath-er�s still per-fec-ting
ways of mak-ing seal-ing wax
You bet-ter stop, look - a-round, -
here it comes,
Here comes your nine-teenth
nerv-ous break-down
Here comes your nine-teenth
nerv-ous break-down
Here comes your nine-teenth
nerv-ous break-down
Here comes your nine-teenth
nerv-ous break-down
