In a modern culture
my friend you must be careful
they've a million ways to kill you

in this dangerous world
there’s an art to growing old
taking chances
magic happens

one mistake's all it takes
and your life has come undone
walk away cause you're breaking up the girl
it's a drag
i know it's hard
but you're tearing her apart
walk away cause you're breaking up the girl

i am afraid that there's much to be afraid of
here today, gone tomorrow
don't end up in the gutter
just like the one before
you're just the same
you're such a loser

one mistake's all it takes
and your life has come undone
walk away cause you're breaking up the girl
it's a drag
i know it's hard
but you're tearing her apart
walk away cause you're breaking up the girl

you've got to let her go because you're breaking up the girl
the girl

one mistake's all it takes
and your life has come undone
walk away cause you're breaking up the girl
it's a drag
i know it's hard
but you're tearing her apart
walk away cause you're breaking up the girl

you're breaking up the girl
you're breaking up the girl
the girl
