LYRICS

In a modern culture

My friend you must be careful

They've a million ways to kill you

In this dangerous world

There's an art to growing old

Taking chances

Magic happens

One mistakes all it takes

And your life has come undone

Walk away cause you're breaking up the girl

It's a drag

I know it's hard

But you're tearing her apart

Walk away cause you're breaking up the girl

I am afraid that there's much to be afraid of

Here today and gone tomorrow

Don't end up in the gutter

Just like the one before

You're just the same

Such a loser

You've go to let her go because youre breaking up

You're breaking up the girl

Breaking up the girl

In UK Breaking Up The Girl was released on April 8th 2002, the third single from Beautifulgarbage.

3 CD's included new songs Happiness and Confidence as well as remixes by Brothers in Rhythm and Timo Mass.

In addition, there was an acoustic version of Breaking Up The Girl, the video of Breaking Up The Girl and a cover of the Velvet Underground song Candy Says.

The band seem to have a variety of influences on Breaking Up The Girl. This is a pop/rock hybrid of a track with a '60s girl band intro. This lighter Garbage sound works, not least because of the simple, honest and highly effective lyrics that are the real strength of the song.
