On Paper

On paper

I know it must be done

On paper

I know his time has come

He refuses to listen or learn

And so he has to burn

Like paper

Like every other one

On paper

I'm big and bad and red

On paper

I have to stomp him dead

Killing him should make me glad

His songs are really bad

On paper

But I can't get them out of my head

So please, please don't make me

Don't make me go through

With the thing that you made me to do

You me to turn him to ash

But I may have found me a match

Don't make me light him

Don't make me bite him

I think I like him

On paper

I'm older than the moon

On paper

I wouldn't love a goon

There's wisdom in my family tree

With such a legacy

On paper

I'd sing a different tune

So please, please don't make me

Don't make me go through

With the thing that you made me to do

Well it couldn't be black-and-whiter

I'm a dragon and he's a fighter

Don't make me fight him

Don't make me light him

I think I like him

Oh, I believe that I do now

Oh yes, I think I like him

On paper

The mission must be served

On paper

The Tree must be preserved

If man ever comes to this place

He's finished his fall from grace

It is written

On paper

On paper

On paper

Your will is the way

'Cause I'm put here to play the role

That you want me to play

Well I'll carry out your wishes

The fighter will sleep with the fishes

It is written

On paper

On paper

On paper

Yes, on paper

On paper

On paper
