Lyrics

Iris –
I like to think my heart is just a muscle
A muscle that I’ve learned to control
I figured, hell, one harmless midnight tussle
With you would rest quite easy on my soul
Now I see you’re a tres, tres goddamn charmer
An actress is taught to be cool BUT
Who am I trying to fool?

Paperman –
I’d like to toast your firm determination
But human nature’s got the best of me
I’ve never forced myself upon a lady

Iris –
You’re about as subtle as artillery

Paperman –
I’ve been here before and I have to
Admit that I can’t keep my cool
Who are we trying to fool?
Who are we trying to fool?

Paperman –
Don’t look for me to be your savior

Iris –
No good can come from this behavior

Sheila –
This ain’t no mystery, look at our history
It’s just another wild Caribbean night
The rum and drums just bring out what’s in us
Temptation’s been here since that very first bite
Who are they tryin’ to fool?
Who are they tryin’ to fool?

They should forget it, they’ll both regret it
He wants a push, she needs a shove
He’s got a good wife, she hides a dark life
Fuel for combustion and anger and love
Who are they tryin’ to fool?
Who are they tryin’ to fool?
Who are they tryin’ to fool?

Paperman –
Life is for most of us one long postponement

Iris –
If we think too much I guess we’ll miss our chance

Paperman –
It’s our time, our night, our island, not our future

Iris –
It’s not the whole tamale, just one dance

Duet –
So Who are we trying to fool?
Who are we trying to fool?
Let’s break all of those goddamn Kinja rules
