Paper People, paper streets and paper houses in a row

Paper everything is all the paper people need to know

Paper pencils colour paper people into different shades

And it’s a shame because we lose the paper people when it rains

And they say I should fire up the rain

But the gas is running out inside my lighter

And the rain keeps folding down my paper place

So what’s the point of trying

This world is made up

This world is made up of the rain

And Mother Nature

She doesn’t have a thing to say

‘Cause we’ve betrayed her

We cut down everything we take

Until it’s made up

This world is made up of the rain

Soggy paper makes the paper people too heavy to stand

Paper hopes fall through their paper fingers like it’s paper sand

But paper sand can be the start of building many paper things

Like paper castles, paper cities, paper hopes and paper dreams

And they say I should fire up the rain

But the gas is running out inside my lighter

And the rain keeps folding down my paper place

So what’s the point of trying

This world is made up

This world is made up of the rain

And Mother Nature

She doesn’t have a thing to say

‘Cause we’ve betrayed her

We cut down everything we take

Until it’s made up

This world is made up of the rain

We’re all paper people, we’re all paper people in a row

We’re all paper people, we’re all paper people in a row

Yeah, we’re all paper people, we’re all paper people in a row

Yeah, we’re all paper people, paper

This world is made up

This world is made up of the rain

And Mother Nature

She doesn’t have a thing to say

‘Cause we’ve betrayed her

We cut down everything we take

Until it’s made up

This world is made up of the rain

And they say I should fire up the rain (This world is made up, this world is made up of the rain)

But the gas is running out inside my lighter (And Mother Nature, she doesn’t have a thing to say)

And the rain keeps folding down my paper place (‘Cause we’ve betrayed her, until it’s made up)

So what’s the point of trying

We’re all paper people, we’re all paper people in a row

We’re all paper people, we’re all paper people in a row

Yeah, we’re all paper people, we’re all paper people in a row

We’re all paper people, we’re all paper people
