JAMES TAYLOR - Let It All Fall Down lyrics

rate me

Sing a song for the Wrong

And the Wicked and the Strong

And the Sick, as thick as thieves

For the faceless fear that was never so near

Too clear to misbelieve

Well the sea is jumping salty

And the porpoise has the blues

My recollection's faulty

And I cannot find my shoes

And my wiring is misfiring

Due to cigarettes and booze

I'm behind in my dues

I just now got the news

He seems to tell us lies

And still we will believe him

Then together he will lead us

Into darkness, my friends

REFRAIN:

Let it fall down, let it fall down

Let it all fall down

Let it fall down, let it fall down

Let it all fall down

The man says stand to one side, son

We got to keep this big ball rolling

It's just a question of controlling

For whom the bell is tolling

REFRAIN

There'll be suffering and starvation

In the streets young man

Just where have you been, old man

Just look out of your window, man

REFRAIN

Well, it ain't nobody's fault but our own

Still, at least we might could show the good sense

To know when we've been wrong

And it's already taken too long

So we bring it to a stop

Then we take it from the top

We let it settle on down softly

Like your gently falling snow

Or let it tumble down and topple

Like the temple long ago

REFRAIN
