Broke Down and Busted Songtext
von Todd Rundgren

Look at this empty face,
Look at this broken frame
I have been no other place
And you know I′ve heard no other name.

How can you keep me so?
How can I let it go?
I look the worst that you've ever seen
Is it too much to ask what that′s supposed to mean?
You've been playin' around and I played the part
Of a broke-down man with a busted heart.


Reach out a hand and see
What you have made of me
Take a good hard look and then
Close your eyes and
Ask yourself again

How can you keep me so?
How can I let it go?
You know that I would go anywhere
That I could go in my old wheelchair
Though I wouldn′t get far ′til it fell apart
I'm a broke down man with a busted heart.

How can you keep me so?
How can I let it go?
You know my state as you hear my song
You′ll change your mind if I live that long
Couldn't start it again
Nothing′s left to start
But a busted man with a broke-down heart.
