It's not chipped
We're not cracked
Oh, we're shattered
Ay hey, ay hey, ay hey
Ooh na, na-na-na
Na-na, na-na-na-na

I thought we had something special
And we had something good
But I shoulda had another mechanic under my hood
If you see me walking by you, boy, don't you even speak
Pretend you on the sofa and I'm on the TV
You might see me on a poster, see me at a show
But you won't see me for free, boy, this ain't no promo

Actin' all shamed now
Wherever you be laying, you can stay now
Gotta board the BBJ and put the shades down
I'm on the plane now
And don't keep calling from your mama's house

When I break I break, boy
Up out my face, boy
Up out my face, boy
Up out my face, I break, uh
Up out my face, boy
Up out my face, boy
Up out my face, I break

You ain't never gonna feel this thing again
You gon' get a lot of calls
'Cause I CC-ed all your friends (when I break, I break)
I ain't walking 'round all mopey and sad
That ain't even my bag, baby
(I break, when I break, I break)

So look who's crying now, boo-ooh, hoo
Talking 'bout your missin' your boo
Oh no, you and getting it (I know)
No, you ain't hittin' it
No, you ain't a rapper
So you need to stop spittin' it
Ha ha, haa, ha ha
You wonder who I'm messin' with
While you ain't next to me
I'm goin', bye
So pay the consequences
'Cause you actin' all ignorant

So you ashamed now (ashamed)
Wherever you be laying, you can stay now
Gotta board the BBJ and put the shades down
I'm on the plane now
And don't keep calling from your mama's house

When I break I break, boy
Up out my face, boy
Up out my face, boy
Up out my face, I break, uh
Up out my face, boy
Up out my face, boy
Up out my face, I break

You ain't never gonna feel this thing again
You gon' get a lot of calls
'Cause I CC-ed all your friends (when I break, I break)
I ain't walking 'round all mopey and sad
They're collecting my bags, baby (I break)

'Cause when I break, I break, I break
And no super glue can fix this sh-
When I break, I break, I break
Not even a welder and a builder could rebuild this sh-
When I break, I break, I break
Not even a nail technician with a whole lot of gel and acrylic
Can fix this when I break, I break
If we were two Lego blocks
Even the Harvard University graduating class of 2010
Couldn't put us back together again

When I break I break, boy
Up out my face, boy
Up out my face, boy (no, no, no)
Up out my face, I break, uh
(When I break, I break, I break)
Up out my face, boy (I break)
Up out my face, boy (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Up out my face, I break

You ain't never gonna feel this thing again
You gon' get a lot of calls
'Cause I CC-ed all your friends (ha, ha, ha, ha, haa)
(Ha, ha, ha, ha, haa)
I ain't walking 'round all mopey and sad (I break)
They're collecting my bags, baby ('cause when break, baby, baby)

I break, boy
Up out my face, boy
Up out my face, boy
Up out my face, I break, uh (I tell you what)
Up out my face, boy (tell you nothin', here)
Up out my face, boy (I'll tell you something)
Up out my face, I break (I'm outta here, oh yeah)

Album art
Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
