Well, in a little bitty nitty gritty one horse town
|
Right side up or upside down
|
A tiny piece of paper got stuck to a boot
|
And it stayed there stuck for about an hour or two
|
'Til the man climbed in his truck and he kicked it loose
|
Yeah and just like that it was back on the move
|
|
It got run over thirty-seven times in the street
|
'Til a bird picked it up 'cause it looked like something to eat
|
But it was finally dropped on the courthouse steps
|
The breeze started blowing and guess what was next
|
It blew in a car window gave an old man a scare
|
Caused a six-car pile up on the downtown square
|
|
It was floatin' around
|
High in the air
|
Even if you looked you may not see it there
|
It's just one of those things
|
We rarely ever think about
|
Yeah it could come from a hamburger bag or a bubble gum wrapper
|
It's a day in the life of a little scrap piece of paper
|
|
There it goes...here it comes
|
|
Two people in the shadows where they couldn't be seen
|
Both of them was wearin' someone else's ring
|
She said here's my new number, you better write it down
|
So he grabbed that piece of paper just a layin' on the ground
|
He folded it up, and put it in his jeans
|
'Til it was found by his wife at her washing machine
|
|
Well, she threw it in the trash, yeah she took it out the door
|
Well that's her job 'cause he don't live there no more
|
She put it by the curb in a rubber maid bin
|
'Til the neighbour's dog Spot knocked it over again
|
It was set free when the cold wind blew
|
Yeah and just like that it was back on the move
|
|
A just a floatin' around
|
High in the air
|
Even if you looked you may not see it there
|
It's just one of those things
|
We rarely ever think about
|
Yeah it could come from a hamburger bag or a bubble gum wrapper
|
It's a day in the life of a little scrap piece of paper
|
|
Just a floatin' around
|
High in the air
|
Even if you looked you may not see it there
|
It's just one of those things
|
We rarely ever think about
|
Yeah it could come from a hamburger bag or a bubble gum wrapper
|
It's a day in the life of a little scrap piece of paper
