Paper Tiger Lyrics

Oh, you paper tiger

Now see what you've done

You made your stand on shifting sand

And now begins the fun

Your bluff's been called at last

So what do you do now

Now someone got the drop on you

And finally faced you down

Oh, you paper tiger

Oh, you paper tiger

Now see what you've done

Every chamber emptied

And nowhere left to run

How could you forget

The only code that you lived by

To move so fast and talk so soft

And keep your powder dry

Oh, you paper tiger

Oh, you paper tiger

Now see what they've done

They've picked you clean and strung you up

To dry out in the sun

Oh, you bigshot bankrupt

You flamed-out flat-lined fake

They'll bake you in the ashes

Of your latest last mistake
