Clap your hands, everybody
If you got what it takes
'Cause I'm Kurtis Blow and I want you to know
That these are the breaks
Brakes on a bus, brakes on a car
Breaks to make you a superstar
Breaks to win and breaks to lose
But these here breaks will rock your shoes
And these are the breaks
Break it up, break it up, break it up
If your woman steps out with another man
(That's the breaks, that's the breaks)
And she runs off with him to Japan
(That's the breaks, that's the breaks)
And the IRS says they wanna chat
(That's the breaks, that's the breaks)
And you can't explain why you claimed your cat
(That's the breaks, that's the breaks)
And Ma Bell sends you a whoppin' bill
(That's the breaks, that's the breaks)
With eighteen phone calls to Brazil
(That's the breaks, that's the breaks)
And you borrowed money from the mob
(That's the breaks, that's the breaks)
And yesterday you lost your job
(That's the breaks, that's the breaks)
Well, these are the breaks
Break it up, break it up, break it up
Throw your hands up in the sky
And wave 'em 'round from side to side
And if you deserve a break tonight
Somebody say alright (alright)
Say, ho (ho)
You don't stop
Keep on, somebody scream (oww)
Break down
Breaks on a stage, breaks on a screen
Breaks to make your wallet lean
Breaks run cold and breaks run hot
Some folks got 'em and some have not
But these are the breaks
Break it up, break it up, break it up
Break down
If you got what it takes
'Cause I'm Kurtis Blow and I want you to know
That these are the breaks
Brakes on a bus, brakes on a car
Breaks to make you a superstar
Breaks to win and breaks to lose
But these here breaks will rock your shoes
And these are the breaks

To the girl in brown, stop messin' around
(Break it up, break it up)
To the guy in blue, what you gon' do?
(Break it up, break it up)
And to the girl in green, don't be so mean
(Break it up, break it up)
And the guy in red, say what I said
(Break it up, break it up)
Break down
Brakes on a plane, brakes on a train
Breaks to make you go insane
Breaks in love, breaks in war
But we got the breaks to get you on the floor
And these are the breaks
Break it up, break it up, break it up
Break down, yo
Just do it, just do it, just do it, do it, do it
Just do it, just do it, just do it, do it, do it
Just do it, just do it, just do it, do it, do it
Just do it, just do it, just do it, do it, do it
You say last week you met the perfect guy
(That's the breaks, that's the breaks)
And he promised you the stars in the sky
(That's the breaks, that's the breaks)
He said his Cadillac was gold
(That's the breaks, that's the breaks)
But he didn't say it was ten years old
(That's the breaks, that's the breaks)
And he took you out to the Red Coach grill
(That's the breaks, that's the breaks)
But he forgot the cash and you paid the bill
(That's the breaks, that's the breaks)
And he told you the story of his life
(That's the breaks, that's the breaks)
But he forgot the part about his wife, huh, huh
(That's the breaks, that's the breaks)
Well, these are the breaks
Break it up, break it up, break it up
Break down
(Break it up, break it up)
To the guy in blue, what you gon' do?

I've got my hands right now in every wound
I’ve been here before but not with you
I still got some pain but it’s over now
The sun shines on you but I don’t know how
I don't care, I feel as one
Drowned in the sun now
I don't care, I feel as one
I don't care, I feel as one
Drowned in the sun now
Drowned in the sun

I know I’m a weirdo and I like it
So in love but yeah, it’s a secret
I know it’s wrong, but I needed to
To get my hands cleaned of what feeds you
I don't care, I feel as one
Drowned in the sun now
I don't care, I feel as one
I don't care, I feel as one
Drowned in the sun now

Everybody's down on their knees
Listen like thieves
But who needs that
When it's all in your hands
And we take it down
To the end of town
Where they have control
But they're loosing touch
When the lights go out
You are all you need
You are all you need
So don't hesitate
There's no time to waste
You just do it for yourself
Listen like thieves
But who needs that
When it's all in your hands
And we take it down
To the end of town
Where they have control
But they're loosing touch
When the lights go out
You are all you need
You are all you need
So don't hesitate
There's no time to waste
You just do it for yourself

It happened one summer, it happened one time
It happened forever, for a short time
A place for a moment, an end to dream
Forever I loved you, forever it seemed
One summer never ends, one summer never began
It keeps me standing still, it takes all my will
It happened forever, for a short time
A place for a moment, an end to dream
Forever I loved you, forever it seemed
One summer never ends, one summer never began
It keeps me standing still, it takes all my will
And then suddenly last summer
Sometimes I never leave, but sometimes I would
Sometimes I stay too long, sometimes I would
Sometimes it frightens me, sometimes it would
Sometimes I'm all alone and wish that I could
And then suddenly last summer
And then suddenly last summer
Until suddenly last summer
And then suddenly last summer
Until suddenly last summer
Sometimes I never leave, but sometimes I would
Sometimes I stay too long, sometimes I would
Sometimes it frightens me, sometimes it would
Sometimes I'm all alone and wish that I could
And then suddenly last summer
And then suddenly last summer
Until suddenly last summer
And then suddenly last summer
Until suddenly last summer

Well you know just what you do to me
The way you move soft and slippery
Cut the night just like a razor
Rarely talk and that's the danger
It's the one thing
You are my thing
The way you move soft and slippery
Cut the night just like a razor
Rarely talk and that's the danger
It's the one thing
You are my thing
You know your voice is a love song
It's a catcall from the past
There's no ice in your lover's walk
You don't look twice 'cause you move so fast
You've got a dozen men behind you
You've got dead flowers on the floor
You're too pretty in the daylight
It keeps them coming back for more
It’s The One Thing
It's a catcall from the past
There's no ice in your lover's walk
You don't look twice 'cause you move so fast
You've got a dozen men behind you
You've got dead flowers on the floor
You're too pretty in the daylight
It keeps them coming back for more
It’s The One Thing
