ROBERT
There was a time I could stop on a dime
Forbearance was one of my talents
But since you've been around I can't hold my ground
I'm consistently losing my balance
I'm an accident waiting to happen
I'm a mishap about to ensue
I'm the toy on the stair
The three legged chair
The hem that's been caught by a shoe
When my two lovesick arms started flappin'
There was nothing my ankles could do
I'm an accident waiting to happen
So how be I happen to you
JANET
When men say I'm sweet and they fall at my feet
My heart doesn't beat any faster
But when you lose control
It touches my soul
So I'm bracing myself for disaster
You're an accident waiting to happen
A catastrophe destined to be
ROBERT
I'm the rags in the cellar
JANET
A broken umbreller
ROBERT & JANET
A branch hanging loose from a tree
JANET
I can see myself jumpin' and clappin'
For a man who lives dangerously
ROBERT & JANET
You're/I'm an accident waiting to happen
JANET
So hurry and happen to me
ROBERT & JANET
You're/I'm an accident waiting to happen
So hurry and happen to me
