about

The first rule of Paper Street is you don't talk about Paper Street

lyrics

In my party days I used to snort cocaine
And that hit would go right to my brain
And mix with chemicals like dopamine
And Alcohol and ketamine
And i was king of the world if you know what that means

Too much sex, rock, drugs and violence
Now I’m in the back of an ambulance
Here’s what happens if you leave it all up to chance
You could have a near life experience

All my friends, they called me a psychopath
But I was having more fun than they would have
They better take me out cuz they won’t take me back
Everything you add you know I’ll just subtract
I see the pain I cause, it just make me laugh

Too much sex, rock, drugs and violence
Now I’m in the back of an ambulance
Here’s what happens if you leave it all up to chance
You could have a near life experience

I am
King of this paper street
It’s holding place for my empty dreams
But it don’t exist it’s a fantasy
The place where madness and boredom meet

Now I am just and old pervert
Yeah a sickly cynical introvert
So society and the psych ward team
Can diagnose what’s really wrong with me
Yeah I am king of the world I think you know what that means

am
King of this paper street
It’s holding place for my empty dreams
But it don’t exist it’s a fantasy
The place where madness and boredom meet

Too much sex, rock, drugs and violence
Now I’m in the back of an ambulance
Here’s what happens if you leave it all up to chance
You could have a near life experience
