Let It All Fall Down

[Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] Let it fall down, let it fall down, let it all fall down[x2] [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] [Verse 3] 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 [Chorus] [Verse 4] Well, it isn'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 [Chorus]
