paroles de chanson Let It All Fall Down (Live in Concert) - James Taylor

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
