The Waterboys — Everybody Takes A Tumble

To break your heart into pieces Is what I'm here to do I've got nothing but trouble, babe In store for you I've got one eye fixed on the main chance One hand behind your back And you just stumbled blind, babe Right into my track And that's when you fell so low Everybody takes a tumble, don't you know? That's when you fell so low Pick yourself off the floor before you go There's vengeance in my belly Slime on both my shoes And everything bad that you ever heard About little old me is true My trigger finger is itchy My humor is black And you just stumbled blind, babe Right into my track And that's when you fell so low Everybody takes a tumble, don't you know? That's when you fell so low Pick yourself off the floor before you go Now the devil drives a hard bargain Preacher burns his hands Fireman gives a sermon Lord surveys his lands Huck Finn just went out for sticks He ain't coming back And you just stumbled blind, babe Right into my track And that's when you fell so low Everybody takes a tumble, don't you know? That's when you fell so low Pick yourself off the floor before you go Rush is back in the ballrooms [Incomprehensible] in my egg Sinéad O'Connor is the guest of honor And the Plagues are gonna play Old Van Morrison's mourning Something about a copycat And you just stumbled blind, babe Right into my track And that's when you fell so low Everybody takes a tumble, don't you know? That's when you fell so low Pick yourself off the floor before you go Faces started shining Flags begin to sway Would you believe I came a long distance Just to be with you today? Your crooked partner He just got the sack And you just stumbled blind, babe Right into my track And that's when you fell so low Everybody takes a tumble, don't you know? That's when you fell so low Pick yourself off the floor before you go, go
