Modest Mouse - Paper Thin Walls Lyrics

Artist: Modest Mouse

Album: Miscellaneous

  • Songwriters: Isaac Brock, Jeremiah Green, Eric Judy

These walls are paper thin
And everyone hears every little sound
Everyone's a voyeurist, they're watching me
Watch them, watch me right now

They're shakin' hands, they're shakin' in their shoes
Oh Lord, don't shake me down
Everyone wants two of them
And half of everyone else who's around

It's been agreed, the whole world stinks
So no one's taking showers anymore

Laugh hard it's a long ways to the bank
I can't be blamed for nothin' anymore
It's been a long time since you've been around
Laugh hard it's a long ways to the bank

Tow the line to tax the time, you know that you don't owe
I can't be a fool for everyone that I don't know

These walls are paper thin
And everyone hears every little sound
Everyone's a voyeurist, they're watching me
Watch them, watch me right now

They're shakin' hands, they're shakin' in their shoes
Oh Lord, don't shake me down
Everyone wants two of them
And half of everyone else who's around

It's been agreed, the whole world stinks
So no one's taking showers anymore

Laugh hard it's a long ways to the bank

Tow the line to tax the time, you know that you don't owe
I can't be a fool for everyone that I don't know
