Paperhouse Lyrics

Take a light shining on the land,
Off the wall,
Up and down, free everything,
What you feel is all gone.
You can make everything
What you want with your head,
You’re OK and be aware
Everywhere with your mind.

Two times, goodbye love,
You’re sorting out for your room.
Too many savage songs,
Laugh with him today.
Playing everything,
You and your mind
And flying paperhouse
Way back on the laugh.

You just can’t give them no more,
You just can’t give them no more,
You just can’t give them no more.

Honey back, fake everything,
Make them feel so bad.
You can make everything
What you want with your head.
Honey back, fake everything,
Make them feel so bad.
You can make everything
What you want with your head.

Flying paperhouse,
Let’s stop in the sky.
Every day my paperhouse
Reaches out, comes in,
Every day my paperhouse
Coming in, reaching out.

It's great to see that someone uploaded tons of Can lyrics. Yay for krautrock.

Agreed.

The lyrics don't really matter, though, as they are merely a vehicle for the singer's voice, which might as well be another instrument.

@inpraiseoffolly A friend of mine said the same thing.

This has the atmosphere of a smoky backyard party near a woodsy area. I love it, it makes me think of my childhood.

seems like this song is about sleep and dreaming

So summery, yet so intensely sad at the same time. Funny mix Oh and I think "Savage songs" is actually "summer songs", makes more sense in context of the music.

??? light shining on the land, Must go off, I don't think anything Make you feel so gone. You can make everything What you want with your head, Youre OK and be aware Anywhere with your mind.

Sometimes, in my love, You start to have to weep. Too many sad-a songs, Laugh with him today. Theyre everything, You and your mind The flying paperhouse Lay back on the ????.

You just cant give anymore, You just cant give anymore, You just cant give anymore.

I don't, think anything Make you feel so bad. You can make everything What you want with your head.

Flying paperhouse, Lands down out of the sky. Everyday my paperhouse Reaches out, comes in.
