Cardboard Empire lyrics
Cardboard Empire
Would you crumble to the ground
As we watched by?
Shipping magnate
Are you stranded on the ground
With no dog to fly?
Round the table
Sat the kings of circumstance
The puppeteer would pull his strings
And we would sing and dance
As the Cardboard Empire fell
Stone Age Neros
Sat behind their desks of steel
Trading paper clips
Of our empire
There was nothing left untouched
But potato chips
We sat down at the banquet
And the jester danced a reel
The gladiator drew his sword
We knew we were the meal
As the Cardboard Empire fell
Who are the people
Who are the people
Who are the people
That you think you are?
Who are the people
Who are the people
Who are the people
That you think you are?
Sat down at the banquet
And the jester danced a reel
The gladiator drew his sword
We knew we were the meal
As the Cardboard Empire fell
Who are the people
Who are the people
Who are the people
That you think you are?
Who are the people
Who are the people
Who are the people
That you think you are?
