Lyrics
Paper Fortune$ Victor Freedom
I chose not to feather Chucka?s nest
When Crackers persuaded his mates to invest
In high-flying schemes tipped to be the best
For making Paper Fortune$
The boom had to lose its oom, some day
With holders of shares the ones to pay
Like you guys, the ones Chucka led astray
Chasing Paper Fortune$
Like gold in the ground, you dreamed it was there
The fever ran hot as you rushed for your share
With Ern keen to lend there was never a fear
Of losing Paper Fortune$
The boom had to lose its oom, some day
With holders of shares the ones to pay
Like you guys, the ones Chucka led astray
Chasing Paper Fortune$
From all that has passed when will man learn
The basics of life, how old values return
No man should be worth more than he can earn
Without those Paper Fortune$
The boom had to lose its oom, some day
With holders of shares the ones to pay
Like you guys, the ones Chucka led astray
Chasing Paper Fortune$
Chasing Paper Fortune$
