Paper Tiger

PAPER TIGER

Larger than life
Strutting like the king of the mountain
You're so sly
Snaking all within your surroundings

All image over substance
All fake and overblown

You ride the back of a paper tiger
Castles in the air
The roar is loud but it has no bite
And you're no one to fear

You bully everyone
Power is your peak
So pretentious
Your appearance strong
But the inner you is weak
And defenceless

You think your something special
Shallow all attitude

Chorus

The mask you wear won't hide the coward deep inside
And your house of cards will crumble
Your bark don't match your bite

Paper tiger you're so sly
Your vainglory clouds your judgement
And you only fool yourself

Chorus
