Cardboard Empire(2003 Remastered - Album Version) - The Guess Who[00:00:01]
Written by:Burton Cummings/Bill Wallace/Kurt Winter[00:00:03]
Cardboard empire[00:00:13]
Would you crumble to the ground[00:00:14]
As we watched by[00:00:18]
Shipping magnate[00:00:25]
Are you stranded on the ground[00:00:26]
With no dog to fly[00:00:30]
Round the table[00:00:34]
Sat the kings of circumstance[00:00:36]
The puppeteer would pull his strings[00:00:40]
And we would sing and dance[00:00:42]
As the cardboard empire fell[00:00:45]
Stone age neros[00:01:03]
Sat behind their desks of steel[00:01:04]
Trading paper clips[00:01:07]
Of our empire[00:01:15]
There was nothing left untouched[00:01:16]
But potato chips[00:01:20]
We sat down at the banquet[00:01:23]
And the jester danced a reel[00:01:26]
The gladiator drew his sword[00:01:30]
We knew we were the meal[00:01:32]
As the cardboard empire fell[00:01:35]
Who are the people[00:01:40]
Who are the people[00:01:43]
Who are the people[00:01:46]
That you think you are[00:01:48]
Who are the people[00:01:52]
Who are the people[00:01:55]
Who are the people[00:01:58]
That you think you are[00:02:00]
Sat down at the banquet[00:02:25]
And the jester danced a reel[00:02:27]
The gladiator drew his sword[00:02:31]
We knew we were the meal[00:02:34]
As the cardboard empire fell[00:02:36]
Who are the people[00:02:42]
Who are the people[00:02:44]
Who are the people[00:02:47]
That you think you are[00:02:49]
Who are the people[00:02:53]
Who are the people[00:02:56]
Who are the people[00:02:59]
That you think you are[00:03:01]
