Scrap Piece Of Paper
Writers: Lona Heid & Ryan Reynolds
Status:
Well in a little bitty, nitty gritty, one horse town
Right side up or upside down
A tiny piece of paper got stuck to a boot
And stayed there stuck for about an hour or two
Til the man climbed in his truck and kicked it loose
Yeah just like that it was back on the move
It got run over thirty-seven times in the street
Til a bird picked it up cause it looked like somethin' to eat
But it was finally dropped on the courthouse step
The breeze started blowin' and guess what was next
It blew in a car window giving an old man a scare
Caused a six-car pile-up on the down town square
It was floatin' around; high in the air
Even if you look you may not see it there
It's just one of those things you rarely ever think about
Yeah it could come from a hamburger bag or a bubblegum rapper
It's a day in the life of a little scrap piece of paper
(there it goes) (here it comes) (solos)
Two people in the shadows where they couldn't be seen
Both of them was wearing someone else's ring
she said Here's my name and number you better write it down
So he grabbed that piece of paper just a layin' on the ground
He folded it up and put it in his jeans
Still if was found by his wife at her washing machine
Well she threw it in the trash as she took it out the door
Well that's her job cause he don't live there no-more
She put it by the curb in a rubbermaid bin
Til the neighbor's dog Spot knocked it over again
It was set free when the cold wind blew
Yeah just like that it was back on the move
Well it was floatin' around; high in the air
Even if you look you may not see it there
It's just one of those things you rarely ever think about
Yeah it could come from a hamburger bag or a bubblegum rapper
It's a day in the life of a little scrap piece of paper
Just a-floatin' around; high in the air
Even if you look you may not see it there
It's just one of those things you rarely ever think about
Yeah it could come from a hamburger bag or a bubblegum rapper
It's a day in the life of a little scrap piece of paper
