Nits - Red Tape lyrics

(Hofstede)

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
