THE BREAKUP SONG (They Don't Write 'Em) - the Greg Kihn Band

We had broken up for good

Just an hour before

Ah ah ah, ah ah ah ah, ah

Now I'm staring' at the bodies as they're dancin' 'cross the floor

Ah ah ah, ah ah ah ah, ah

And then the band slowed the tempo

And the music took me down

Ah ah ah, ah ah ah ah, ah

It was the same old song with a melancholy sound

Ah ah ah, ah ah ah ah, ah

They don't write 'em like that anymore

They just don't write 'em like that anymore

We'd been livin' together for a million years

Ah ah ah, ah ah ah ah, ah

Now it feels so strange out in the atmospheres

Ah ah ah, ah ah ah ah, ah

And then the jukebox plays a song I used to know

Ah ah ah, ah ah ah ah, ah

And now I'm starin' at the bodies as they're dancin' so slow

Ah ah ah, ah ah ah ah, ah

They don't write 'em like that anymore

They don't write 'em like that anymore

Mm now I wind up starin' at an empty glass

Ah ah ah, ah ah ah ah, ah

Cause it's so easy to say that you'll forget your past

Ah ah ah, ah ah ah ah, ah

They don't write 'em like that anymore

No

They just don't write 'em like that anymore

They just don't write 'em like that anymore

They just don't write 'em like that anymore

They just don't

No they don't no no uh uh

They just don't write 'em like that anymore
