lyrics

Maybe
Sugar I'm sick like you
I said baby
You're just like me too

Hey lady with the looks to kill
You got a taste for the paper and you're craving it still

Honey I ain't never held no silver spoon
But I'm shaking from the paper got my blood running blue
Won't you tell me little lady that it cant be true
Hey, hey, honey: I'm shaking from the paper flu

Woman
Don't you like the taste of the wine
I said baby
Don't you think think that its such a crime

Hey lady with the looks to kill
You got a taste for the paper and you're craving it still

Honey I ain't never held no silver spoon
But I'm shaking from the paper got my blood running blue
Won't you tell me little lady that it cant be true
Hey, hey, honey: I'm shaking from the paper flu

They sang god save the green
Long live the paper queen
Shout for cold hard cash
And raise a glass to selling out

Honey I ain't never held no silver spoon
But I'm shaking from the paper got my blood running blue
Won't you tell me little lady that it cant be true
Hey, hey, honey: I'm shaking from the paper flu
