Everything Put Together Falls Apart Songtext
von Paul Simon

Hm, 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
Ooh, 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, hm
I see it happening every day
Ooh, spare your heart
Everything put together

Sooner or later falls apart
There's nothing to it, nothing to it
You can cry
And 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
Ooh, just remember what I said
