(Wallace-Winter)
2
Cardboard empire would you crumble to the ground
3
As we watched by
4
Shipping magnate are you stranded on the ground
5
With no dog to fly...
6
Round the table sat the kings of circumstance
7
The puppeteer would pull his strings
8
And we would sing and dance
9
As the cardboard empire fell
10
Stone Age Neros sat behind their desks of steel
11
Trading paper clips
12
Of our empire there was nothing left untouched
13
But potato chips
14
We sat down at the banquet and the jester danced a reel
15
The gladiator drew his sword, we knew we were the meal
16
As the cardboard empire fell
17
Who are the people, who are the people
18
Who are the people that you think you are?
