If It All Falls Down |
| I never wanted to be |
| A man of mystery |
| My life’s an open book |
| By James Joyce and Agatha Christie |
| Sometimes I get confused |
| Somewhere around page two |
| I live the perfect crime |
| And crime pays more than it used to |
| They’re checkin' the evidence |
| May be some charges pressed |
| The only one they got me on |
| Is some misdemeanor craziness |
| 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 down |
| If 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 down |
| Never wanted to be |
| A part of history |
| I have my days in the sun |
| A beach bum a man for all seasides |
| Guidance counselor said |
| Your scores are anti-heroic |
| Computer recommends |
| Hard-drinking calypso poet |
| Studied life at sea |
| Studied life in bars |
| Never passed my S.A.T.'s |
| So I thought I’d study extra hard |
| 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 down |
| 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 |
| We 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 shortage |
| 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 down |
| If 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 down |
| If 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 down |
| 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 |
