Lyrics

You're the kind of person you meet at certain dismal, dull affairs

You are the type of person encountered at tedious social events.

Center of a crowd, talking much too loud, running up and down the stairs

You stand out in a crowd, speaking loudly and being restless.

Well, it seems to me that you have seen too much in too few years

It appears that you've experienced too much in a short span.

And though you've tried you just can't hide your eyes are edged with tears

Despite your efforts, your eyes reveal hidden sorrow.

You better stop, look around

A suggestion to pause and assess the situation.

Here it comes, here it comes, here it comes, here it comes

A warning that the nineteenth nervous breakdown is imminent.

Here comes your nineteenth nervous breakdown

-

When you were a child you were treated kind

In childhood, you received kindness but lacked proper upbringing.

But you were never brought up right

Your upbringing was flawed despite the abundance of toys.

You were always spoiled with a thousand toys but still you cried all night

Even with numerous toys, you cried at night.

Your mother who neglected you owes a million dollars tax

Your neglectful mother owes a significant tax debt.

And your father's still perfecting ways of making sealing wax

Your father is absorbed in perfecting sealing wax techniques.

You better stop, look around

A recurring advice to stop and observe.

Here it comes, here it comes, here it comes, here it comes

The impending arrival of the nineteenth nervous breakdown is emphasized.

Here comes your nineteenth nervous breakdown

-

Oh, who's to blame, that girl's just insane

Suggesting that the girl in question is mentally unstable.

Well nothing I do don't seem to work

Frustration that efforts seem ineffective and worsen matters.

It only seems to make matters worse, oh please

An appeal for understanding and improvement.

You were still in school when you had that fool who really messed your mind

A reference to a past romantic involvement affecting mental well-being.

And after that you turned your back on treating people kind

You turned away from treating people kindly after a negative experience.

On our first trip I tried so hard to rearrange your mind

Efforts to reshape the partner's mindset during the initial relationship.

But after a while I realized you were disarranging mine

Realization that the partner was negatively impacting your own mindset.

You better stop, look around

A repetition of the advice to stop and observe.

Here it comes, here it comes, here it comes, here it comes

The imminent arrival of the nineteenth nervous breakdown is reiterated.

Here comes your nineteenth nervous breakdown

-

Oh, who's to blame, that girl's just insane

Reiteration that the girl in question is mentally unstable.

Well nothing I do don't seem to work

Frustration with the ineffectiveness of actions.

It only seems to make matters worse, oh please

A sense that efforts are exacerbating the situation.

When you were a child you were treated kind

Recurrence of the theme of a kind but inadequate childhood.

But you were never brought up right

Despite numerous toys, a troubled upbringing resulted in nightly tears.

You were always spoiled with a thousand toys but still you cried all night

A repetition of the challenges faced in childhood.

Your mother who neglected you owes a million dollars tax

A reference to a mother with a substantial tax debt.

And your father's still perfecting ways of making sealing wax

A father absorbed in perfecting sealing wax techniques.

You better stop, look around

A reiterated advice to stop and observe.

Here it comes

Repetition emphasizing the imminent arrival of the 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

-

Here comes your nineteenth nervous breakdown

A final confirmation of the approaching nineteenth nervous breakdown.
