“She Cracked” is a song by the Modern Lovers that was recorded in April 1972 and produced by John Cale at A & M, Los Angeles, CA. The track tackles themes of self-help and self-destruction under the guise of ambiguous verses that hover between being satirical and or completely sincere. The track...
[Verse 1]
Well, she was sensitive, she understood me
She understood the European things from 1943
But she does all these things that I can't stand
I can't care if she stays with another man
[Chorus]
She cracked, I'm sad, but I won't, oh
She cracked, I'm hurt, you're right, oh
[Verse 2]
Well, she cracked, I won't
She did things that I-I don't
She'd self destroy, necessary to self enjoy
I self develop, necessary to self help
[Chorus]
She cracked, I'm sad, but I won't, that's right
She cracked, I'm hurt, you're right
[Verse 3]
Oh well, she cracked, I won't
She did things that I don't
She'd eat garbage, eat shit, get stoned
I stay alone, eat health food at home
[Chorus]
She cracked, I'm sad, but I won't
She cracked, I'm hurt, you're right, alright
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
She cracked, I'm sad, but I won't
She cracked, I'm hurt, you're right
One more time
One more time
She cracked, I'm sad, but I won't
She cracked, I'm hurt, you're right
