So you think you had a good time
With the boy that you just met - paper sun
Kicking sand from beach to beach
Your clothes all soaking wet
But if you look around and see
A shadow on the run - on the run
Don't be too upset because it's just a paper sun
Aah paper sun, aah paper sun
In the room where you've been sleeping
All your clothes are thrown about - paper sun
Cigarettes burn window sills
Your meter's all run out
But there again it's nothing
You just split when day is done - day is done
Pitching lips to nowhere, hung up on the paper sun
Aah paper sun, aah paper sun
Standing in the cool of my room
Fresh cut flowers give me sweet perfume
Too much sun will burn! Too much sun will burn!
Too much sun will burn! Too much sun will burn!
When you're feeling tired and lonely
You see people going home - paper sun
You can't make the train fare
Or the six pence for the phone
And icicles you're crying
From your cheek have just begun - just begun
Don't be sad, good times I have
Beneath the paper sun
Aah paper sun, aah paper sun
Daylight breaks while you sleep on the sand
A seagull is stealing the ring from your hand
The boy that had given you so much fun
Has left you so cold in the paper sun
In the paper sun
In the paper sun
In the paper sun ....
