paper paradise

you find it hard to sleep at night

this thing keeps you awake

it's your life

it's your life

your name's in all the papers

but they're calling you a fake

in your life

in your life

blinded by your vision it's so hard for you to see

righ man

poor man wasn't just tv. hey

you're gonna lose your paper paradise

it only takes a spark to make it burn

you might blow a fuse in paper paradise

what's it gonna take to make you learn

you just can't make it work. so much for your brain to do

you can't maintain the place

in your life

it's your life

your house is like a phone booth

you're so caught up in the race

for your life

it's your life

if you don't take the time to read the writing on the wall

there'll be no one to catch you when you fall. hey

you're gonna lose your paper paradise

it only takes a spark to make it burn

you might blow a fuse in paper paradise

what's it gonna take to make you learn

you just can't make it work.
