All Falls Down歌詞

Hey there, Mr. Chaplin
You may think I’m rather small
‘Cause the posh papers are falling at your feet
So, go ahead and snub me
And don’t return my call
And build your house on top of easy street
But what you’re gonna do when it all falls down
‘Cause I let a little rumor spread?
What you’re gonna do if I change the name
Of a person sleeping in your bed?
What you’re gonna do
When I tell the tale
That makes the country turn its head?
Just a little gossip,
And just a little lie
I’ll simply say the little tramp is just a little spy
And what you’re gonna do
When it all falls down?
Hey there, Mr. Chaplin
Well, your act deserves applause
You wave our flag and the country is impressed
But I am a voice among the crowd that’s
Questioning your cause
And now I’ll spread my doubt among the rest
And what you’re gonna do when it all falls down?
And where you’re gonna go from there?
What you’re gonna do when the money is gone?
And who you’re gonna buy to care?
What you’re goona do when the country says,
“Now get yourself out of here”?
What you’re gonna paint
When you cannot paint the town?
I’m gonna wipe the smile from that famous little clown
What you’re gonna do when it all falls down?
And all the king’s houses
And all the king’s men
Will never put poor Charlie
Together again!
And what you’re gonna do when it all
Falls down?
