4 a.m. and you're not here Another early meeting you say Last night was your son's 8th birthday And again you arrived late You say you do it for me But admit it boy It's the paper chase Chorus It's the paper chase It's the paper It's the paper chase It's the paper It's the paper chase It's the paper chase We don't need money only Not bread alone It's you your children are missing The money doesn't make us less lonely It ain't your money honey What you chase you never catch Who you are ain't defined by what you have What you strive to be should be much bigger than that Honey I'm getting out this race I'm leavin this paper chase Chorus It's the paper chase It's the paper It's the paper chase It's the paper It's the paper chase It's the paper chase Your mother told you most things In moderation won't hurt But this paper chase with you Turned out to be way too damn much Everything has its place Love and war And money too The wrong combination can be Bad for you So I tried to negotiate the truth But every time it comes back in twos Bear with me while I get my bearing this time Trying to pull myself together ain't easy after you Gave my all my everything to you I'm moving on and this time I won't look back Gotta get used to living alone I'm moving on Chorus It's the paper chase It's the paper It's the paper chase It's the paper It's the paper chase It's the paper chase I'm getting out of this race I'm leavin this paper chase |
