Lyrics
Red Tape
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
She was always thinking
That the others were the losers
And that they could [never?] kill her too
This is the official word
Now welcome to the papers
And the forms are waiting here for you
It didn't work at all
She couldn't stand or fall
Queing up for counters
She was standing there for hours
And then someone told her
It is closed
Bureaucrat tie and hat
Disappearing like a ghost
It didn't work at all
She couldn't stand or fall
Late at night the kids in bed
She's looking at the TV screen
One more night she's talking to
The window of the washing machine
