about

I was prepared to search far and wide for the right ingenue to demo this song. Fortunately, she lives in my house.

lyrics

I used to think my luck was never gonna stop
A big ol' bowl of cherries with a cherry up on top
I thought my lot in life was simply sugar cups and cakes
And that's the breaks, and the breaks, and the breaks

I would lounge around the palace and reflect on all my gifts
I bored myself with perfect lies, my mind began to drift
But when you danced across the room I did a double-take
And that's the breaks, and the breaks, and the breaks

Just when you sure you've got it all,
It all gets better
Call me the belle of the ball
A real high-stepper

I led you to my heart, I led you to my bed
You played me through and through, you bled me cherry red
How could I suspect your heart was full of rattlesnakes?
That's the breaks, and the breaks, and the breaks

So let this be a lesson for those who dare to dream
The higher you should fly, the deeper men will scheme
First you get the pains and then you get the aches
And that's the breaks, and the breaks, and the breaks
