The Breaks (Re-Recorded)

The Breaks(Re-Recorded) - Kurtis Blow

Clap your hands everybody

If you got what it takes

'Cause I'm Kurtis Blow and yo need to know

That these are the breaks

Breakes 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

And the IRS says they want to chat

And you can't explain why you claimed your cat

And Ma Bell sends you a whopping bill

With eighteen phone calls to Brzil

And you borrowed money from the mob

And yesterday you lost your job baby

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 youdeserve a break tonight

Somebody say alright

(All right) Say ho-oo

(Ho-oo ) And you don't stop

Keep on somebody scream

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

To the girl in brown stop messing around

(Break it up break it up)

To the guy in blue whatcha gonna do

To the girl in green don't be so mean

And the guy in red say what I said

Break down

Brakes on a train brakes on a plane

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
