- Paper Tiger Lyrics / with translationsYou've got the loudest bark, but you've got no bite, It's a funny sight to see Like a paper tiger hanging on a string, darlin you don't bother me
You're like the fold I can never iron out of my shirt Sometimes I wonder if it is worth it taking all that you throw at me
You've got the loudest bark, but you've got no bite It's a funny sight to see Like a paper tiger hanging on a string, darlin you don't bother me
And when you're told, You're not the brightest star in the sky You knock the others down just to prove that you're brighter But you darken when you're shedding light
You're like the fold I can never iron out of my shirt Sometimes I wonder if it is worth it taking all that you throw at me
You've got the loudest bark, but you've got no bite It's a funny sight to see Like a paper tiger hanging on a string, darlin you don't bother me
And when you're told, You're not the brightest star in the sky You knock the others down just to prove that you're brighter But you darken when you're shedding light
