Paper Blood
Emerson, Lake & Palmer Song Lyrics





(Emerson Lake Palmer)

Livin' on a razor's edge
Sharper than a knife
Surrender to the power of wedge
Keep running for your life
You don't need no periscope
You won't need second sight
It'll come at you so fast my friend
It's thank you and goodnight

Caught in the river
You can't stop the flood
Well that's the power of money
Paper blood

Ambition flies on silver wings
Searching for a crown
King of kings they pull the strings
'Till they run you down
No matter what you've undergone
The measure of success
Is how much you can charge it on
American Express

Caught in the river
You can't stop the flood
Well that's the power of money
Paper blood

You don't need to drive a car
And you don't need a house
And you don't need a guiding star
When living like a mouse
In the presidential suite
They'd rather see you burn
Ducking and diving
Just to make ends meet
To the point of no return

Caught in the river
You can't stop the flood
Well that's the power of money
Paper blood
