If you're gonna make an omelette You gotta break an egg If you wanna be in show biz Then you gotta break a leg Babe you're heading on a journey I hate to see you make 'cause the only food they sell there Is called Disaster Cake You won't plan or deserve it When life sneaks behind your back It'll grab you by the short hairs And gently tie you up to the rack If you think you can outrun it That'll be your first mistake 'cause the recipe you're making Is for Disaster Cake
Read my lips Babe the crack that you hear is thunder You don't know but you're goin' under Read my lips Babe that flash that you see is lightnin' I had been up ahead It's frightenin' Yeah your're young and you're cool Here to break every rule You're a fool
Now you won't listen or believe me When I tell you what's ahead I'm a dinosaur in your mind I've never even seen 'The Dead' But child read my lips and tremble 'cause your world's about to break And the crumbs they're sellin' after Are from Disaster Cake Read my lips
Girl you're heading for a disaster You run fast - you need to run faster Read my lips 'cause you're an accident waiting to happen Yeah you're young and you're cool But hell's full of young fools Rest in peace
Yeah I know you're tired of listenin' And you wish I'd just go away If I do you'll be alone here And then you'll beg my ass to stay Babe, life's a paradox for certain Like tryin' to fuck through an earthquake Simpler task than eating An entire Disaster Cake
Read my lips Girl you're heading for a disaster You run fast - you need to run faster Read my lips Babe that glash that you see is lightnin' I have been up ahead It's frightenin' Yeah you're young and you're cool But hell's full of young fools Rest in peace
