The Cardboard Ghost

Verse 1

Empty roll hanging loose

Mistakes made after three pints of juice

Looking down at a cardboard hollow core

Panic hits the bathroom floor

Pre-Chorus

Spin it round

Hope it grows

Now I’m stuck where the wind blows

Chorus

One square

One single square

I can’t find relief anywhere

One square

One lonely square

Left me stranded sitting right there

Verse 2

Curry spice burns through my bone

Locked in this porcelain zone

Trapped in the tiled quiet room

Praying for a paper plume

Pre-Chorus

Spin it round

Hope it grows

Now I’m stuck where the wind blows

Chorus

One square

One single square

I can’t find relief anywhere

One square

One lonely square

Left me stranded sitting right there

Bridge

Mission failure

Mission total

Mission ended

Scrounging for a napkin

Scrounging for a tissue

Scrounging for a receipt

Chorus

One square

One single square

I can’t find relief anywhere

One square

One lonely square

Left me stranded sitting right there
