Lyrics

0:00Step out step out of our cages
0:05Step out of our paper cages
0:10Step out living our lives step out of our cages
0:15Out of our cages living our lives out of our cages
0:19Step out
0:42I like the look of your place
0:45Yes I love your construction
0:47Did you carve a wee key
0:49From the soap in your kitchen
0:52To turn in a lock
0:54Of your own penal fiction
0:56You're so vivid and free in your imagination
1:02Well we'll never be free
1:04If our incarceration
1:06Is a story we tell
1:08A tale of invention
1:11Is it personal choice
1:14Personal conviction
1:16Or are you living like me in paper cages
1:21Step out step out of our cages
1:26Step out of our paper cages
1:30Step out step out of our cages
1:35We're living our lives in paper cages
1:40Step out
1:59When you took on your bid
2:01Did you make up your number
2:04Did you walk like a punk
2:06To the screws at your counter
2:08Did you say you can't win
2:11When you are the system
2:14That contains in paper cages
2:18Step out step out of our cages
2:23Step out of our paper cages
2:28Step out step out of our cages
2:33We're living our lives in paper cages
2:37Step out
2:39Come on
2:57Living our lives in paper cages
3:02Living our lives in paper cages
3:06Living our lives in paper cages
3:11Step out
3:14Step out step out of our cages
3:16Step out of our paper cages
3:21Step out step out of our cages
3:26We're living our lives in paper cages
3:31Step out
Step out step out of our cages
Step out of our paper cages
Step out living our lives step out of our cages
Out of our cages living our lives out of our cages
Step out
I like the look of your place
Yes I love your construction
Did you carve a wee key
From the soap in your kitchen
To turn in a lock
Of your own penal fiction
You're so vivid and free in your imagination
Well we'll never be free
If our incarceration
Is a story we tell
A tale of invention
Is it personal choice
Personal conviction
Or are you living like me in paper cages
Step out step out of our cages
Step out of our paper cages
Step out step out of our cages
We're living our lives in paper cages
Step out
When you took on your bid
Did you make up your number
Did you walk like a punk
To the screws at your counter
Did you say you can't win
When you are the system
That contains in paper cages
Step out step out of our cages
Step out of our paper cages
Step out step out of our cages
We're living our lives in paper cages
Step out
Come on
Living our lives in paper cages
Living our lives in paper cages
Living our lives in paper cages
Step out
Step out step out of our cages
Step out of our paper cages
Step out step out of our cages
We're living our lives in paper cages
Step out
