19th Nervous Breakdown Lyrics By The Rolling Stones

    you’re the kind of person
    you meet at certain dismal dull affairs
    center of a crowd talking much too loud
    running up and down the stairs
    well it seems to me that you have seen too much in too few years
    and though you’ve tried you just can’t hide
    your eyes are edged with tears

    you better stop
    look around
    here it comes here it comes here it comes here it comes
    here comes your nineteenth nervous breakdown

    when you were a child
    you were treated kind
    but you were never brought up right
    you were always spoiled with a thousand toys
    but still you cried all night
    your mother who neglected you
    owes a million dollars tax
    and your father’s still perfecting ways of making sealing wax

    you better stop
    look around
    here it comes here it comes here it comes here it comes
    here comes your nineteenth nervous breakdown

    oh who’s to blame that girl’s just insane
    well nothing i do don’t seem to work
    it only seems to make matters worse oh please

    you were still in school
    when you had that fool
    who really messed your mind
    and after that you turned your back
    on treating people kind
    on our first trip
    i tried so hard to rearrange your mind
    but after while i realized you were disarranging mine

    you better stop
    look around
    here it comes here it comes here it comes here it comes
    here comes your nineteenth nervous breakdown

    oh who’s to blame that girl’s just insane
    well nothing i do don’t seem to work
    it only seems to make matters worse oh please

    when you were a child
    you were treated kind
    but you were never brought up right
    you were always spoiled with a thousand toys
    but still you cried all night
    your mother who neglected you
    owes a million dollars tax
    and your father’s still perfecting ways of making sealing wax
    you better stop
    look around

    here comes
    here comes your nineteenth nervous breakdown
    here comes your nineteenth nervous breakdown
    here comes your nineteenth nervous breakdown
    here comes your nineteenth nervous breakdown
    here comes your nineteenth nervous breakdown
    here comes your nineteenth nervous breakdown
