Paper Scissors Stone by The Dowling Poole Lyrics
When did the chosen few then become a crowd
People forgive me I’m thinking out aloud
About all who are stolen as time marches by
How to decide who’s to live or to die
Back in a time when I couldn’t give a damn
Blissfully unaware of my fellow man
I would dream of the future and all I could be
Assuming that you’d all still be there with me
CHORUS
In the skies the dictator I despise will gun you down
Breeding chaos all around
Good die young, Is your work here never done
Now satisfied? There’s a tyrant in the sky
Boys and girls just soldier on – blissfully young
How does one make these decisions of a day
Are there accomplices to they have a say on
Who gets it or who has to sit this one out
Paper, stone scissors heads up its your shout
MIDDLE EIGHT
I saw the signs from a very young age
When they said that “they’re coming to take me away”
Oh so sinister the innocence of youth
People forgive me I’m thinking out aloud
About all who are stolen as time marches by
How to decide who’s to live or to die
Back in a time when I couldn’t give a damn
Blissfully unaware of my fellow man
I would dream of the future and all I could be
Assuming that you’d all still be there with me
CHORUS
In the skies the dictator I despise will gun you down
Breeding chaos all around
Good die young, Is your work here never done
Now satisfied? There’s a tyrant in the sky
Boys and girls just soldier on – blissfully young
How does one make these decisions of a day
Are there accomplices to they have a say on
Who gets it or who has to sit this one out
Paper, stone scissors heads up its your shout
MIDDLE EIGHT
I saw the signs from a very young age
When they said that “they’re coming to take me away”
Oh so sinister the innocence of youth
