James Taylor - Let It All Fall Down [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
Let it fall down, let it fall down, let it all fall down[x2]

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
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

[Chorus]

[Verse 4]
Well, it isn'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

[Chorus]
