A Paper starts life the minute
You are born
With your feet dipped in ink you stand a paper
While there filling in the forms.
Dot your eyes cross your t’s
Nine numbers chosen from a bin
Will follow you through your life
As this paper chase begins
It’s a paper chase
It’s a paper chase
Its hard to keep the pace with this paper chase
They send you off to school
To learn the way
How to earn the paper
To live from day to day
You’ll write and roll and burn it
As the smoke hangs in your head
A scroll of paper you will recive
If you’ve heard all the things they said
It’s a paper chase
It’s a paper chase
It’s hard to keep the pace with this paper chase
You find a job work all week to
Shuffle papers here and there
To earn the paper to buy the things
To keep ya from despair
Imprisoned by this paper
We need to survive
Your just a number on a paper
That'll bleed you till you die
It’s a paper chase
It’s a paper chase
It’s hard to keep the pace with this paper chase
Now they signed my last paper
As I look down upon this land
Paper lying everywhere
Where trees no longer stand
Life is just a paperback
There really has no end
As our ashes hit the ground another
Paper chase begins
It’s a paper chase It’s a paper chase
It’s hard to keep the pace with this paper chase
