[00:07.230] I got time on my hands I'm just stripping paper
[00:17.158] It's amazing what you will find
[00:23.032] Stripping paper
[00:26.991] When you get down to the past
[00:33.314] Back then we didn't have means
[00:37.466] For fine decorations
[00:43.351] So we painted while mixing wine
[00:49.246] With flirtation
[00:53.278] There, in the mess of it all
[00:58.310]
[00:58.993] He took me right there in the thrill
[01:02.455] Not quite against my will
[01:05.556] With my back to that rococo wall
[01:11.528] We slipped right down to the floor
[01:16.670]
[01:18.253] I kicked closed the door
[01:21.397] He complimented my taste
[01:28.272] I anointed his serious face
[01:34.336] With wallpaper paste
[01:37.945] I wish we could laugh like that now
[01:44.034] But what seemed to follow
[01:47.015] And ended up hollow
[01:49.919] Was our vow
[01:52.850]
[01:57.099] Tear a strip or two
[02:00.290] See what came not much later
[02:09.174] Here's a pony and toy balloon
[02:16.568] Behind a vine that withered all too soon
[02:24.510] Here's the pencil of a measuring mark
[02:32.088] And a monster she spied in the dark
[02:38.797] Now I've got no place in her heart
[02:45.178] Let me go back to the start
[02:50.571]
[03:00.711] I got time on my hands I'm just stripping paper
[03:13.110] I got time on my hands I'm just stripping paper
[03:25.388] I got time on my hands I'm just stripping paper
