Lyrics for Paper Thin Walls

These walls are paper thin And everyone hears every little sound Everyone's a voyeurist They're watching me, watch them, watch me right now They're shaking hands, they're shaking in their shoes Oh Lord, don't shake me down Everyone wants two of them And half of everyone else moves around It's been agreed the whole world stinks So no one's taking showers anymore Laugh hard, it's a long ways to the bank I can't be blamed for nothing anymore It's been a long time since you've been around Laugh hard, it's a long ways to the bank Tow the line to tax the time, you know That you don't owe I can't be a fool for everyone That I don't know These walls are paper thin And everyone hears every little sound Everyone's a voyeurist They're watching me, watch them, watch me right now They're shaking hands, they're shaking in their shoes Oh Lord, don't shake me down Everyone wants two of them And half of everyone else moves around It's been agreed the whole world stinks So no one's taking showers anymore Laugh hard, it's a long ways to the bank Tow the line to tax the time, you know That you don't owe I can't be a fool for everyone That I don't know
