If we fuss and we fight

Why do we have to do it every Saturday night?

We can act for our friends

But why can't we face each other when the masquerade ends?

Well now, I don't know what's happening

I can't tell just who's to blame

But two forgiving people

Could be so in love again



Stop! We're breakin' up a happy home

Oh darlin'

Stop! 'Cause I never was much good alone

Sweet baby

Oh, don't turn your back and walk away

Don't do it, no

Stop! We're breakin' up a happy home, yeah



It's a game no-one wins

Trying to hurt each other with those needles and pins

I can't go back, can't go on

But somehow I know the feeling isn't totally gone

Oh, there's so much love between us

That we're so afraid to show

It's been keeping us together

But for how long, I don't know



Stop! Yeah, we're breakin' up a happy home

Oh darlin'

Stop! I never was much good alone

Listen baby

Ooh, don't, no, turn your back and walk away

Don't do it, oh stop

Stop! We're breakin' up a happy home, yeah



Ooh

Stop! Stop! Don't break it up

Stop! Stop! Don't break it up

Gotta be another way we can try

Stop! Stop! Don't break it up

Stop! Stop! Don't break it up

I don't wanna hear you saying goodbye

Oh baby, sweet baby, ahh, yeah baby, ooh baby
