Homewrecker - Styx

Edge Of The Century

Homewrecker

Written by James Young, Dennis DeYoung

Lead Vocals by James Young

She’s got heavy equipment

She’ll turn your head in an instant

She like to rock and roll all night long

She’s a one woman wrecking crew

Playing the part of an ingenue

In your personal tragedy

Veiled in a false innocence, so clever

The poison catalyst of your self destruction

She’s a homewrecker

Like a real steam roller

She’s gonna drive you into the ground

She’s a heartbreaker

A real mischief maker

You know she’ll walk away & never look back

Just a near fatal attraction

Maybe a psychotic reaction

You just can’t stop yourself, right or wrong

Your tangled web of sin

Put you in the state you’re in

Trapped by her passionate design

Sentenced to loneliness, forever

Destined for emptiness & down on your knees

Just a near fatal attraction

Maybe a psychotic reaction

You just can’t stop yourself, right or wrong

Your mind’s in disarray, left all alone to play

In the wreckage of your shattered dreams

But can you escape, no never

And there won’t be any happy endings
