about

Music and lyrics - Dean Frederick

lyrics

Now and then it's not the same
It's serious this new game
Should have been an old flame
A sacrifice, who's to blame?
Sound advice, a re-name
Never mind, glad you came

There's no denying a loss of simplicity
No sympathising, unwelcome publicity

I'll be your paperboy, you'll tear me up for sure
I'll put the pieces through your shiny new front door
You'll never notice, and I wouldn't want you to
A preoccupation that might be forgiven you

There has to be another way
A new crime that does pay
We'll fight another day
A free for all, a give-away
A "trust me and what I say"

I never told you my real gift lies
Possessing a talent to idealise

I'll be your paperboy, you'll tear me up for sure
I'll put the pieces through your shiny new front door
You'll never notice, and I wouldn't want you to
A preoccupation that might be forgiven you

I'll be your paperboy, you'll tear me up for sure
I'll put the pieces through your shiny new front door
You'll never notice, and I wouldn't want you to
A preoccupation that might be forgiven you

I'll be your paperboy, you'll tear me up for sure
I'll put the pieces through your shiny new front door
You'll never pick me up, you wouldn't possibly
I'll sell you Sellotape for cheap reassembly

I'll be your paperboy
I'll be your paperboy
