[Verse 1]
Oh, what a lousy excuse for a car
One mile to go, but I can't push it that far
I think I've had enough
I think I'm, I'm giving up

[Verse 2]
Saved up my money to buy a new guitar
Then I got ripped off by the guy who fixed my car
I think I've had enough
I think I'm, I'm giving up

[Pre-Chorus]
Once again life's thrown me a curve
And it blew up right in my face
Once again life's rattled my nerves
Don't you see that I'm stuck in this place?
Once again life's thrown me a curve
And it blew up right in my face
Once again life's rattled my nerves
Don't you see that I'm stuck in this place?

[Chorus]
All because, you're giving me a
Breakdown, breakdown oh-oh (Breakdown)
Breakdown, breakdown oh-oh (Breakdown)
Breakdown, breakdown oh-oh (Breakdown)
Breakdown, breakdown oh-oh (Breakdown)
Breakdown, breakdown oh-oh (Breakdown)
Breakdown, breakdown oh-oh (Breakdown)
Breakdown, breakdown oh-oh (Breakdown)
Breakdown, breakdown oh-oh (Breakdown)
[Bridge]
Stuck on the side of the road
Emotional overload (Stuck on the road, emotional overload)
Stuck on the side of the road (Emotional overload)
Emotional overload (Stuck on the road, emotional overload)
I guess he can destroy
Everything that I enjoy
But I won't be the one he takes down
No, I won't breakdown

[Interlude]

[Chorus]
You're giving me a
Breakdown, breakdown oh-oh (Breakdown)
Breakdown, breakdown oh-oh (Breakdown)
Breakdown, breakdown oh-oh (Breakdown)
Breakdown, breakdown oh-oh (Breakdown)
Breakdown, breakdown oh-oh (Breakdown)
Breakdown, breakdown oh-oh (Breakdown)
Breakdown, breakdown oh-oh (Breakdown)
Breakdown, breakdown oh-oh (Breakdown)
Breakdown, breakdown oh-oh (Breakdown)
Breakdown, breakdown oh-oh (Breakdown)
Breakdown, breakdown oh-oh (Breakdown)
Breakdown, breakdown oh-oh (Breakdown)
