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
