lyrics

ALL THINGS FALL APART

Go enjoy yourself and recall it comes to nothing
One man had a garden - planted trees of every kind of fruit
Near a pool of water to water the trees he grew
And they all grew taller and bore him many fruit

BUT I KNOW HOW IT GOES
IF YOU’RE RICH OR IF YOU’RE POOR IT’S ALL THE SAME
I KNOW HOW IT GOES
ALL THINGS FALL APART

Go enjoy yourself and recall it comes to nothing
One man lived alone- squandered every penny that was ever given to him
He lay in a pool of water to drown the sorrow he knew
Then he swopped his breathing and away his spirit flew

CHORUS

One man had a garden -planted trees of every fruit
Servants waited upon him
All the earth and tree bowed down on their knees before him
He lay in a bed of flowers -looked up at the sky so blue
Then he stopped his breathing and away his spirit flew

CHORUS
