Cardboard Empire - 2003 Remastered

Lyrics

Cardboard empire would you crumble to the ground
 As we watched by
 Shipping magnate are you stranded on the ground
 With no dog to fly...
 Round the table sat the kings of circumstance
 The puppeteer would pull his strings
 And we would sing and dance
 As the cardboard empire fell
 Stone Age Neros sat behind their desks of steel
 Trading paper clips
 Of our empire there was nothing left untouched
 But potato chips
 We sat down at the banquet and the jester danced a reel
 The gladiator drew his sword, we knew we were the meal
 As the cardboard empire fell
 Who are the people, who are the people
 Who are the people that you think you are?
