Something Just Broke Lyricsby . From Assassins Something Just Broke by WOMAN 1 I was out In the yard, Taking down the bed sheets, When my neighbor yelled across: PROPRIETOR "The president's been shot." WOMAN 1 I remember where I was, Just exactly where I was, In the yard out back-- PROPRIETOR "The president's been shot." MAN 1 I was getting me a shoeshine-- WOMAN 1 --Folding sheets-- MAN 1 --When I heard-- WOMAN 2 We were waiting for a carriage-- MAN 1 --Newsboys-- WOMAN 2 Suddenly there's shouting in the street-- WOMAN 1 --Lizzie's sheets... THE PROPRIETOR "The president's been shot." WOMAN 2 I'll remember it forever-- WOMAN 1 And I thought: WOMAN 2 and MAN 1 --Where I was, what I was doing-- WOMAN 1 Something just broke... PROPRIETOR "The president's been shot." MAN 1 My God--! MAN 2 I was up near the ridge, Plowing-- MAN 3 We were working at the plant-- WOMAN 2 I was halfway throguh correcting the exams-- MAN 2 --When my wife MAN 3 It was Mike-- MAN 2 She comes tearing 'cross the field-- MAN 3 --Mike the forman-- WOMAN 2 In runs billy-- MAN 3 I mean, he was crying-- WOMAN 2 He was crying-- MAN 2 She was crying-- WOMAN 2, MAN 2, MAN 3 I'll remember it forever... WOMAN 1 And I thought: PROPRIETOR "The president's been shot." WOMAN 1 You know what? There are presidents who aren't worth a lot. WOMAN 2, MAN 2, MAN 3 I kept thinking: WOMAN 1 There's the kind that gets elected, then forgot. MAN 1 and WOMAN 1 Mr. Garfield-- WOMAN 2 Mr. Lincoln MAN 1 and WOMAN 1 --He's a hack. MAN 3 and WOMAN 1 Bill McKinley-- WOMAN 2 --He's a giant. MAN 1, MAN 3, WOMAN 1 --He's a joke. WOMAN 1 Still, something just broke... PROPRIETOR "The president is rallying." "The president is sinking." "The president is dead." WOMAN 1 Something just broke. MAN 2 I was down at the Exchange... WOMAN 1 Something just made a little dent. WOMAN 2 I'd been shopping... MAN 1 I'd been sick... WOMAN 1 Something just broke-- MAN 3 All I know, it was a Friday... WOMAN 1 Only for a moment. MAN1, MAN 2, MAN 3, BOY I remember it exactly... WOMAN 1 Something got bent. WOMAN 2 I'm taking the order... WOMAN 1 Something jsut left a little mark. BOY I was getting dressed... WOMAN 2 ...two potato soups... WOMAN 1 Something just went a little dark. Something just went. MAN 2 And I wondered: WOMAN 2 I was scared-- MAN 2 and WOMAN 2 What would follow... WOMAN 1 Something to be mended. MAN 1 Made me wonder who we are... WOMAN 1 Something we'll have to weather-- MAN 2 It was seeing all those torches... WOMAN 1 Bringing us all together-- MAN 2 He was me... MAN 3 He was us... WOMAN 1 --If only for a moment... ALL I'll remember it forever... WOMAN 1 Nothing has really ended-- MAN 1, MAN 2, MAN 3, BOY Where I was, what I was doing... WOMAN 1 Only just be suspended... MAN 1, MAN 2, MAN 3, BOY Like a flash... WOMAN 1 'Cause something just stirred... VARIOUS And I thought And I thought to myself And I thought And I thought I kept thinking WOMAN 1 Something just woke. ALL Something just spoke, Something I wish I hadn't heard, Something bewildering occurred. BOY and MAN 2 Fix it up fast, Please-- MAN 2 and MAN 3 Till it's just smoke. WOMAN 1 and WOMAN 2 Till it's only "Something just passed"-- --Nothing that will last. WOMAN 1, WOMAN 2, MAN 1 Where I was, what i was doing... MAN 2, MAN 3, BOY Nothing but the moment... WOMAN 2 Just an awful moment... WOMAN 1 But something just--
