No Breakdown Tonight

The Excentrics

it isnt bleeding anymore

from where he slammed his face in the door

i know its what you want to see

and came here for



but it isnt in my plans

i hate to disappoint my fans

but there will be no breakdown tonight



are you trying to keep awake

for the clown who's bound to break

and all the jokes you hope to find

in his mistakes



i know he looks the part

but he doesnt have the heart

and there will be no breakdown tonight



all of his life

trying to smile through the makeup

i wrote it all down and locked it away in a suitcase



cant imagine the money i could make in the movies

maybe... millions... someday



in the gallery of blues

is a fool who left a bruise

with a bunch of broken teeth

and clown shoes



he could have been the best

but he doenst take requests

and there will be no breakdown

you know there'll be no breakdown

and there will be no breakdown tonight
