We both had it coming, had the same beat Her mountain of pressure, and a rising of heat And for the slightest moment I felt complete With the world Your head was resting in my trembling arms And right then and there that nothing could harm Me and my girl But it all came crashing down With a blood stain on your mother's couch She's a good Christian woman But got plenty of doubts about You and me And if that's my greatest fear Stop the world, I'll jump off right here They say it's worse with every year Stop the world, I'll jump off right here Well you and I both know to get a bit wild Sometimes I yell at you like you were a little child I can feel you slipping from my hold And the harder I grasp, the more you want to let go I can't help myself, no Cause it all came crashing down When Sunday rolled around Her feeling with no base Had me screaming in your face That she'd leave me for one of these clowns And if that's my greatest fear Stop the world, I'll jump off right here They say it's worse with every year Stop the world, I'll jump off right here Don't want to knock down your door For a moment that does not exist, no more (?) That simply time, that I hold so dear Stop the world I'll jump off right here Stop the world, I'll jump off right here Stop the world, I'll jump off right here Right here, right here Stop the world, I'll jump off right here Stop the world
