Testo di Paper And Iron (Notes And Coins)

Paper, iron, won't buy Eden working for paper and for iron work for the right to keep my tie on working for paper and for iron work for the unicorn and lion I pray the kids aren't starving no chicken for the Sunday carving I'll stay for one more farthing I take home my notes and coins every week I'm told I'm worth much more but the Church says turn the other cheek the other cheek paper, iron, won't buy Eden. I know the family needs me can't moan, the factory feeds me won't bite the hand that bleeds me I take home my notes and coins every week I'll inherit the earth I'm told but the Church says to remain this meek remain this meek I'm still a proud man. Won't show anybody else my wage a blend in the crowd man is this anybody's golden age is this anybody's golden age is this anybody's golden age or am I dreaming of a golden cage La la lo it's paper la la lo it's iron la la lo just paper la la lo just iron
