Yeah, Mother’s smiling softly
As she pours another gin
Daddy’s out, been gone for days
The kids will soon be in
Gotta feed those little b#stards
A story then lights out
Mother’s going out tonight
She wants to scream and shout
Inner-city madness
Is creeping from behind
She wants to blot it out with booze
Down at the bump and grind
Breakdown dead head
Another day in bed
Valium to keep you sane
Double gins to dull the pain
Breakdown dead head
Another day in bed
Valium to keep you sane
Double gins to dull the pain
Breakdown dead head
So she takes a toy-boy lover
‘Cause her ego needs a boost
But she knows that’s not the answer
She’ll never leave the roost
She swears she’s still a woman
When he creeps into his bed
And he satisfied the fantasies
That nightly haunt her head
The choice is his libido
Or the pills the doctor give
That keep the knife edge from her wrist
That makes her wanna live
Breakdown dead head
Another day in bed
Valium to keep you sane
Double gins to dull the pain
Breakdown dead head
Another day in bed
Valium to keep you sane
Double gins to dull the pain
Low down
So down
Slow down
You gotta break me down
Break me down, break me down
Got a breakdown dead ahead
