No more runnin' 'round with the usual crew
I'm a havin' a nervous breakdown
I've come to the conclusion you're a total wreck"
A mental shakedown
I see my hands how they shiver
You can't keep a traipsin' all over town
See my knees, how they quiver
I'm a havin' a nervous breakdown
My shattered nerves have seen better days
I'm a havin' a nervous breakdown
My whole body's in a jitter
I see my hands how they shiver
No more movies or stayin' out late
Well, he said, "Hey boy, you just gotta slow down
I've made up my mind, I'd better change my ways
Well, no more girls for a week or two
My whole body's in a jitter
After givin' you a physical check
See my knees how they quiver
And I'm got to tell you what the man had to say
My baby, have to find herself another date
See my knees how they quiver
A mental shakedown
My whole body's in a jitter
I see my hands how they shiver
Well, I went to see my doctor just the other day
I'm a havin' a nervous breakdown
