Paper Tiger 04:22
Racism is dead and the blue line is strong. It stretches shore to shore 2800 miles long. These mothers on the front lines are opportunists at their core, so the convenience stores are boarded up with chains around their door. Dystopian escape from the war at your door. They'll burn down the suburbs, so someone might want to settle that score. But the confetti bombs weren't triggered. No, there was no ticker tape when the curtain revealed a coward wrapped up in a heroes cape. Paper tiger Keyboard Warrior Paper tiger This time they'll hear you roar.

Lyrics:
Racism is dead
and the blue line is strong.
It stretches shore to shore
2800 miles long.
These mothers on the front lines
are opportunists at their core,
so the convenience stores are boarded up
with chains around their door.

Dystopian escape
from the war at your door.
They'll burn down the suburbs,
so someone might want to settle that score.
But the confetti bombs weren't triggered.
No, there was no ticker tape
when the curtain revealed a coward
wrapped up in a heroes cape.

Paper tiger
Keyboard Warrior
Paper tiger
This time they'll hear you roar.
