If it All Falls Down

By: matt betton

1986

I never wanted to be

A man of mystery

My life's an open book

By james joyce and agatha christieSometimes I get confused

Somewhere around page two

I live the perfect crime

And crime pays more than it used toThey're checkin' the evidence

May be some charges pressed

The only one they got me on

Is some misdemeanor crazinessChorus:

If it all falls down falls down falls down

If they solve my life they find me out

Never thought to keep all I have found

I have had my fun if it all falls downIf it all falls down falls down falls down

I have had my fun I have bought a few rounds

And been out on the town way out on the town

Way way way out if it all falls downNever wanted to be

A part of history

I have my days in the sun

A beach bum a man for all seasidesGuidance counselor said

Your scores are anti-heroic

Computer recommends

Hard-drinking calypso poetStudied life at sea

Studied life in bars

Never passed my s.a.t.'s

So I thought I'd study extra hardChorus:

If it all falls down falls down falls down

I have learned my trade from the inside out

I can strum real hard I can play real loud

I can charm a crowd if it all falls downIf it all falls down falls down falls down

I can warm a crowd I can make them shout

I can juggle verbs adverbs and nouns

I can make them dance 'til they all fall downWe had plenty of doctors

We had plenty of lawyers

We had people to make us things

We had people to sell us those things

Didn't have enough room for those things

We build lots of self storage

Calypso poet shortage

Calypso poet shortageChorus:

If it all falls down falls down falls down

I'll have filled that void from city to town

I'll have spent my money and taken my bows

I'll have had my fun if it all falls downIf it all falls down falls down falls down

If they solve my life if they find me out

Never thought to keep all I have found

I have had my fun if it all falls downIf it all falls down falls down falls down

I can charm a crowd 'til they snake dance 'round

With calypso beat down island sound

I can make them dance 'til they all fall downChorus:

If it all falls down falls down falls down

I can warm a crowd I can make them shout

I can juggle verbs adverbs and nouns

I can make them dance 'til they all fall down
