Duran Duran - Paper Gods lyrics

rate me

featuring Mr Hudson

(Intro)

All the paper Gods in the sky of gray

All the fools in town are rulin today, today

(Chorus)

Bow to the paper Gods in a world that is paper thin

The fools in town are rulin now

Bleedin from paper cuts, money for head shots

Fools leadin (today)

Who needs it?

(Verse)

Hey girl, want it all the talkin men declares

Go runnin to be first in line for what? Nobody cares

The next thing you must have, find peace with matchin bag

It's nothin to be glad bout, or sad when you forget about it

And while the race is on, the rats will run the streets

The slaver in a sweatshop, puttin trainers on your feet

I'm walkin throw the rain, oblivious to pain

To shelter from the blame without a reason to complain about it

Oh, oh, oh, don't complain about it x 2

Oh, oh, oh, forget about it

Oh x 4

(Chorus)

(Verse)

She's starin out in underwear, from your computer screen

It's all on sale for dirty cash, we can wash it clean

So hang it out online, confess and you'll feel fine

And if you got the time to spare we want to know

Which name you're wearin

And when the final curtain finally comes down

We'll all be in the party room, no wiser as to how

The total human race became a basket case

It's nothing to lose face about it

(Chorus)

(Bridge)

[Paper Gods fallin down

Paper house, paper town] x 4

Fallin down, falling down x 4

(Verse)

Bow to the paper Gods in a world that is paper thin

The fools in town are rulin now

Bleedin from paper cuts, they go for the money shots

The fools leadin (today)

Who needs em?

(Outro)

All the paper Gods in the sky of gray

All the fools in town are rulin today, today
