We're headin' for a meltdown

There's gonna be a breakdown

Before we have a countdown

We better have a shakedown



You treat me bad, you leave me cold

You got me guessin', so I've been told

You took our love, threw it away

Now start talkin', before it's too late



For the meltdown

There's gonna be a breakdown

Before we have a countdown

We better have a shakedown



Take it or leave it, it's all the same

Now either way, it's a cryin' shame

You say you care, it doesn't show

This could be love, but I guess we'll never know



And what can I say?

And what should I do

When all along

I was thinkin' of you?



A meltdown, ooh

A meltdown, yeah



We're headin' for a meltdown

There's gonna be a breakdown

Before we have a countdown

We better have a shake, shake, shakedown



We're headin' for a meltdown

We're headin' for a meltdown
