Everything put together falls apart

(Paul Simon) Paraphernalia Never hides your broken bones And I don't know why You want to try It's plain to see you're on your own Oh, 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 I see it happening every day Oh spare your heart Everything put together Sooner or later falls apart There's nothing to it, nothing to it And you can cry 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 Just remember what I said
