Paul Brandt - Scrap Piece of Paper lyrics

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 it stayed there stuck for about an hour or two

'Til the man climbed in his truck and he kicked it loose

Yeah, and 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 something to eat

But it was finally dropped on the courthouse steps

The breeze started blowing and guess what was next

It blew in a car window gave an old man a scare

Caused a six-car pile up on the downtown square

It was floating around

High in the air

Even if you looked you may not see it there

It's just one of those things

We rarely ever think about

Yeah, it could come from a hamburger bag or a bubble gum wrapper

It's a day in the life of a little scrap piece of paper

There it goes

Here it comes

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 new number, you better write it down"

So he grabbed that piece of paper just a-laying on the ground

He folded it up and put it in his jeans

'Til it was found by his wife at her washing machine

Well, she threw it in the trash, yeah, 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 rubber maid bin

'Til the neighbour's dog Spot knocked it over again

It was set free when the cold wind blew

Yeah, and just like that it was back on the move

A just a floating around

High in the air

Even if you looked you may not see it there

It's just one of those things

We rarely ever think about

Yeah, it could come from a hamburger bag or a bubble gum wrapper

It's a day in the life of a little scrap piece of paper

Just a floating around

High in the air

Even if you looked you may not see it there

It's just one of those things

We rarely ever think about

Yeah, it could come from a hamburger bag or a bubble gum wrapper

It's a day in the life of a little scrap piece of paper
