Paper Tiger

PAPER TIGER - Written by Carroll Bryant

Just like a paper tiger 

I stand watch

Hear my growl

A paper tiger

I'm on the prowl so

Don't look now, no

You're always hiding in shadows 

You're always wondering which way you should go 

You think you're somebodies hero 

You're putting up a front 

You're so bad but not tough enough 

Just like a paper tiger

Igniting passion with a burning desire 

Just like a paper tiger

On the run to extinguish a fire

That's you

You're always talking in fashion 

You're always handsome but with hearts you be trashing

You think you're good for a snacking 

You're so eager to be fed

You're so alive like the dead 

Just like a paper tiger

Igniting passion with a burning desire 

Just like a paper tiger

On the run to extinguish a fire

That's you

Just like a paper tiger

I stand watch 

Hear my growl

A paper tiger 

I'm on the prowl so

Don't look now, no 

You're always dancing on tombstones

You're always crying whenever you're left alone

You think your heart is your only home

You're so confused to the place that

You can't hide your face 

Just like a paper tiger

Igniting passion with a burning desire 

Just like a paper tiger

On the run to extinguish a fire

That's you

I'm on the prowl so

Don't look now, no

That's you
