Letra de ' I'm Breaking Down ' de William Finn

I'd like to be a princess on a throne
To have a country I can call my own
And a king who's lusty and requires a fling
With a female thing

Great, men will be men
Let me turn on the gas
I saw them in the den
With marvin grabbing whizzer's ass
Oh, sure, I'm sure he's sure, he did his best
I mean, he tried (meant) to be what I was not
The things he was are things which I've forgot

He's a queen
I'm a queen
Where is our crown?
I'm breaking down
I'm breaking down
My life is shitty
And my kid seems like an idiot to me
I mean, that's wrong (sick)
I mean, he's great
It's me who is the matter
Talking madder than the maddest hatter
If I repeat one more word
I swear I'll lose my brain
What else should I explain?
Oh yes, it's true I can cry on cue
But so can you
I'm breaking down
I'm breaking down
Down, down
You ask me: Is it fun to cry over nothing?
It is
I'm breaking down

Oh, darn, don't have time for a breakdown now
Have to get back to my banana-carrot surprise
Oh, that really hurts

Now let's consolidate our simple thoughts
A healthy fruit is healthy till it rots
I agree
We sat beneath the apple tree
Marv, his friend, and me

Now, speaking of friends
Whizzer is sweet and trim
I think he sets the trends
I think, in fact, I'll marry him
He wants me!
I wanna hate him, but I really can't
It's like a nightmare how this all proceeds
I hope that whizzer doesn't fulfill his need
Don't is wrong
Sing along
What was the noun?
I'm breaking down
I'm breaking down
I'll soon redecorate these stalls
I'd like some padding on the walls
And also pills
I wanna sleep
Sure things will prob'ly worsen
But it's not like I'm some healthy person
I've rethought my talks with marv
And one fact does emerge
I think I like his shrink
So that is why I could use a (should turn to) drink
I'm on the brink of breaking down
I'm breaking down
Down, down
I only want to love a man who can love me
Or like me
Or help me

Marvin was never mine
He took his meetings in the boys' latrine
I used to cry
He'd make a scene
I'd rather die than dry clean
Marvin's wedding gown
I'm breaking down
I'm breaking down
It's so upsetting when I found
That what's rectangular is round
I mean, it stinks
I mean, he's queer
And me, I'm just a freak
Who needs it maybe every other week!
I've rethought the fun we had
And one fact does emerge
I've played a foolish clown
The almost-virgin who sings this dirge
Is on the verge of breaking down
I'm breaking down
Down, down
The only thing that's breaking up
Is my family
The only thing that's breaking up
Is my family
But me, I'm breaking down
Down
