Lyrics: Krista Detor's 'Middle of a Breakdown' - Chocolate Paper Suites CD, Suite III. Madness of Love
Where were you darling when they came for me
Yeah, where were you darling when they came for me
Where were you darling when they came around?
When I was counting my steps to the middle of a breakdown
When the TV shows were all the same,
Painted metal on a rusty train
New make-up, new shoes and a brand new dress
He said I might look pretty but my heads a mess
And I need a cup of coffee and a cigarette
I need another cup coffee and a cigarette
I need a cup of black coffee and Im out on the town, yeah
I gotta talk real pretty in the middle of a,
yeah I need a little money
In the middle of a breakdown
Im like a carousel horse in a locust swarm
And there aint no blanket thatll keep me warm
Carnival operator he looks like hell
your girlfriend fell asleep? Oh, well.
Cause shes not like the kind you wanna take home, no
Not like the kind you wanna leave alone
Maybe like that kind that wants to run around
Maybe a little like me in the middle of a breakdown
And I need a cup of coffee and a cigarette
I need another cup coffee and a cigarette
I need a cup of black coffee Im out, Im out on the town, yeah
I gotta talk real pretty in the middle of a,
yeah I need a little money
In the middle of a breakdown
Youre like a brand new buggy for Farmer Jim
When you talk like that and you look like him
And Ill take a little spin in a brand new rig maybe roll around
Running on fumes in the middle of a breakdown
And I need a cup of coffee and a cigarette
I need another cup coffee and a cigarette
I need a great big black cup and Im on the town!
I gotta talk real pretty in the middle of a,
yeah I need a little money
In the middle of a breakdown
Your daddy says, hey...
Your daddy says, hey...
Your daddy says, hey boy, when you comin round...?
Daddy says hey in the middle of a breakdown
And I need a cup of coffee and a cigarette
I need another cup coffee and a cigarette
I need a cup of coffee and a

There's madness in love. At some point or another there's madness; and the song is an homage to the madness of love. :o
