[C#] [D#m] [D] [E]
[A]
[F] [E]
I'd like to be a [F] princess on a throne [F#m] To have a country [C#] I could call my own
And a king [Am] who's [G#] lusty and [G#m]
requires a fling [E] With a female [E] thing
Great!
Men will be men Let me turn on [C#m] the gas
[E] I caught [A] them in the den With Marvin [Em] grabbing Wizzer's ass
Oh sure, I'm sure, he [C] sure, he did his best [F#m] I mean, he meant [C#] to be what he was [F#m] not
The things he was are things which I forgot [E] He's a queen, I'm a queen
Where is my crown?
I'm [A] breaking down, I'm breaking down
My life is shitty [D#] and my kid [Em] seems like an idiot to me
I mean that, [A] sick, I mean he's great
[F#] It's me who is the madder, talking madder, [D] maddest tatter
If I [A] repeat one more word, [D] I [C#] swear I'll [F#m] lose my brain
What [C#m] the hell should [B] I explain?
Oh yes, it's true, I can [E] cry on cue
But so can you, I'm breaking down, I'm breaking [D] down
[Dm] Down, down
[A] You ask me is it fun [F#m] to cry over nothing?
It [E] is, I'm breaking down
[A] Now [F] [E]
[A] let's [F] consider what I might do next I hate [D#] admitting I've become perplexed
I'm [G#] bereaved, I've cried, I've shook, I've [B] yelled, I've heaved
[C#m] I have been [E] deceived
As enemies go, Wizzer [G#] is [C#m] not so [E] bad
It's just he's so damn [C#] happy that it makes me so damn mad
I want to hate him [F] but I really [B] can't
It's like a [C#] nightmare how this all proceeds
[F#m] I hope that Wizzer don't fulfill his [D#] needs
Don't is wrong, [E] sing along, what was the noun?
I'm [A] breaking down, I'm breaking down
I'll [D] soon redecorate these stalls, I'd like some [G#m] padding on the walls
And also [A] pills, I want to sleep
Sure, things [F#] are probably worse him but it's not like I'm some healthy person
[D] [E] I've rethought my [A] talks with Marv
And one [C#] fact does [F#m] emerge
[C#m] Oh, I think I like his [B] shrink
So that [C#] is why [D#] I might turn to drink
I'm on the brink [A] of breaking down
I'm breaking [C#] down, [A] down,
[D] down
[A] I only want to love a man who [B] can love me
[C#m] Or like me, or help [A] me, help me
Marvin was [D] never [F#m] mine
He took his [Bm] meetings in the boys' latrine
I used to [E] cry, he'd make a scene
I'd rather die than Marvin's wedding [A] gown
I'm breaking down, I'm breaking down
It's so upsetting when I found [E] that what's rectangular is round
[A] I mean it stinks, I mean he's queer
[F#] And me, I'm just a freak who needs a baby every other week
[D] I've rethought [A] the fun we've had
[D] And one fact [C#]
does emerge
[D] I've [C#m] played the foolish [B] clown
The almost-grad-jan who sings [E] this [G] dad is on the brink of [A] breaking down
I'm breaking [D] down, [Dm] down, down
[A] The only thing [F#m] that's breaking up is my family
[C] Shh, [F#m] [F]
[A] [B] baby, me, [E] I need you
[F] [A#] [A]
