XTC - Paper Iron

Paper Iron
XTC

Paper, iron, wont buy eden

Working for paper and for iron

Work for the right to keep my tie on

Working for paper and for iron

Work for the unicorn and lion



I pray the kids arent starving

No chicken for the sunday carving

Ill stay for one more farthing



I take home my notes and coins every week

Im told Im worth much more

But the church says turn the other cheek

The other cheek

Paper, iron, wont buy eden.



I know the family needs me

Cant moan, the factory feeds me

Wont bite the hand that bleeds me



I take home my notes and coins every week

Ill inherit the earth Im told

But the church says to remain this meek

Remain this meek

Im still a proud man.

Wont show anybody else my wage

A blend in the crowd man

Is this anybodys golden age

Is this anybodys golden age

Is this anybodys golden age

Or am I dreaming of a golden cage



La la lo its paper

La la lo its iron

La la lo just paper

La la lo just iron
