Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I am the paper above the skyscraper
They tried to rape her, she couldn't reach higher
[Instrumental]
I am the paper above the skyscraper
They tried to rape her, she couldn't reach higher
[Chorus]
Polyesterday, found another way
Polly said today, she'd find another way tomorrow
[Instrumental]
In public, public, they said she was sick in Buick, Buick
Driving naked for an hour, stark naked
[Chorus]
Polyesterday, found another way
Polyesterday, synthetic one way or the other
[Instrumental]
Polyesterday, found another way
Polly said today, she'd find another way tomorrow
