Lyrics: Paul Simon. Everything Put Together Falls Apart.
Paraphernalia, never hides your broken bones
And I don't know why you'd want to try
It's plain to see you're on your own
I ain't blind, no some folks are crazy
Others walk that borderline
Watch what you're doing
Taking downs to get off to sleep
And ups to start you on your way
After a while they'll change your style
I see it happening every day
Spare your heart everything put together
Sooner or later falls apart
There's nothing to it, nothing to it
You can cry, you can lie
For all the good it'll do you you can die
But when it's done and the police come
And they lay you down for dead
Just remember what I said
And I don't know why you'd want to try
It's plain to see you're on your own
I ain't blind, no some folks are crazy
Others walk that borderline
Watch what you're doing
Taking downs to get off to sleep
And ups to start you on your way
After a while they'll change your style
I see it happening every day
Spare your heart everything put together
Sooner or later falls apart
There's nothing to it, nothing to it
You can cry, you can lie
For all the good it'll do you you can die
But when it's done and the police come
And they lay you down for dead
Just remember what I said
Simon Paul
