( Lona Heid / Rian Reynolds )
Right side up or upside down
A tiny piece of paper got stuck to a boot
And it stayed there stuck for about an hour or two
Till the man climbed in truck and kicked it loose
Yeah, just like that it was back on the move
It got run over 27 times in the street
Till a bird picked it up
�Cause it looked like something to eat
Well, it was finally dropped on the court house step
The breeze started blowing and guess what was next
It blew in a car window gave an old man a scare
Caused a six-car pileup on the down town square
Chorus It was floating around
High in the air
Even when you look you may not see it there
It's just one of those things you barely ever think about
Yeah, it could come from a hamburger bag
Or a bubble gum wrapper
It's the day in the life of a little scrap piece of paper
There it goes ... here it comes
Two people in the shadows where they couldn't be seen
Both of them was wearing someone else's ring
She said " Here's my new number, you better write it down"
So he grabbed that piece of paper that was laying on the ground
He folded it up and put it in his jeans
Till it was found by his wife at her washing machine
Well, she threw it in the trash
Yeah, she took it out the door
That's her job �cause he don't live there no more
She put it by the curb in a rubber maid bin
Til the neighbor's dog Spot knock it over again
It was set free when the cold wind blew
Yeah, and just like that it was back on the move
( Chorus 2X )
