The Drowsy Chaperone Original Broadway Cast - Accident Waiting to Happen lyrics

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 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 I'm the rags in the cellar A broken umbreller A branch hanging loose from a tree I can see myself jumpin' and clappin' For a man who lives dangerously You're/I'm an accident waiting to happen So hurry and happen to me You're/I'm an accident waiting to happen So hurry and happen to me
