Learn how to fall lyrics

Artist  : Paul simon 
Song : Learn how to fall
 
You got to learn how to fall 
Before you learn to fly 
And mama, mama it ain’t no lie 
Before you learn to fly 
Learn how to fall 
 
You got to drift in the breeze 
Before you set your sails 
It’s an occupation where the wind prevails 
Before you set your sails 
Drift in the breeze 
 
Oh and it’s the same old story 
Ever since the world began 
Everybody got the runs for glory 
Nobody stop and scrutinize the plan 
Nobody stop and scrutinize the plan 
 
You got to learn how to fall 
Before you learn to fly 
The tank towns they tell no lie 
Before you learn to fly 
Learn how to fall
