Verse

[G/f#] -

Lives are like retractable pencils, if you push them too hard they’re gonna break.

[G/f#] -

And people are like paper dolls, paper dolls and people, they’re a similar shape.

[G/f#] -

And love is like a roll of tape, it’s real good for making two things one

[G/f#] -

But just like that roll of tape, love sometimes breaks off before you were done.

[G/f#]

Another way that love is similar to love, that I’ve noticed

Is, sometimes it’s hard to see the end.

  [G/f#]

You search ’round the roll Search ’round the roll

you search ’round the roll you’re searching ’round the roll

 You search ’round the roll with your fingernai-ai-al

you search with your fingernai-ai-al

Again and again and again and again... Wo-wu-wo-

Again and again and again and again... and agai-hain

Chorus

[G/f#]

Brown paper, white paper, stickin’ together with the tape,

Brown paper, white paper, stickin’ together with the tape,

 the tape of lo-hove

the tape of lo-hove... sticky stuff

[Middle Talk Bit]

Chorus

[G/f#]

Brown paper, white paper, stickin’ together with the tape,

Brown paper, white paper, stickin’ together with the tape,

 the tape of lo-hove... sticky stu-huff

  [G/f#]

Brown paper, white paper,

People people paper paper paper paper people people

  stickin’ together with the tape, tape of lo-hove

Paper paper pencil pencil pencil pencil people people

Give the paper to the people and the people read sellotape oh baby baby yea_____h

You know Jemaine, I’ve been talking about love, and I guess it’s the very strongest... adhesive

Sorry Bret, were you talking to me? I was humming. What did you say?

Oh, it doesn’t matter.

[G/f#]

Brown paper, white paper, stickin’ together with the tape,

Brown paper, white paper, stickin’ together with the tape,

 the tape of lo-hove, sticky stuff – oh brown -

the tape of lo-hove, sticky stuff

[G/f#]

Brown paper, white paper, stickin’ together with the tape,

Brown paper, white paper, stickin’ together with the tape,

 the tape of lo-hove, sticky stuff – oh stick, sticky-ticky, stick sticky – yeah

the tape of lo-hove, sticky stuff
