Letra
0:11You are a self made man
0:15Made a killing on copper mine
0:20Loved beautiful girls
0:24Got a taste for fancy wine
0:29And the suits he wore
0:32Were paper thin
0:36He built a big white house
0:40In the valley of the kings
0:45Took a beautiful wife
0:49Bought her every possible thing
0:54And the silk she wore
0:57Was paper thin
1:01Well they traveled in style
1:05Paid cash for everything
1:10Had a beautiful child
1:14Had a champagne christening
1:19But as they raised their glasses in toast to him
1:26He saw the crystal was paper thin
1:50So shadows came
1:54Whispering words to him
1:59Sold the company out
2:02And cashed all those futures in
2:07But it all still looked so
2:10Paper thin
2:14Well it was late one night
2:17And the rain was streamin' down
2:23He called his wife's name out
2:26And said honey it's over now
2:31I'm gonna burn it all
2:35I can't take this anymore
2:40But as he struck the match
2:44She took a pistol from the drawer
2:49She said I ain't going down with you
2:52Pulled the trigger in
2:56And the bullet it passed right through
3:00Like he was paper thin
You are a self made man Made a killing on copper mine Loved beautiful girls Got a taste for fancy wine And the suits he wore Were paper thin He built a big white house In the valley of the kings Took a beautiful wife Bought her every possible thing And the silk she wore Was paper thin Well they traveled in style Paid cash for everything Had a beautiful child Had a champagne christening But as they raised their glasses in toast to him He saw the crystal was paper thin So shadows came Whispering words to him Sold the company out And cashed all those futures in But it all still looked so Paper thin Well it was late one night And the rain was streamin' down He called his wife's name out And said honey it's over now I'm gonna burn it all I can't take this anymore But as he struck the match She took a pistol from the drawer She said I ain't going down with you Pulled the trigger in And the bullet it passed right through Like he was paper thin
