PAPERWORK Lyrics

[Intro: Kanye West]
Let me get my paper right
Then come out, let's play tonight

Let me get my paper right
Then come out, let's play tonight

[Verse 1: Kanye West & Quavo]
Back on that for the paper (Soo)
Benjamin Frank, that's my neighbor (Ah)
Deep in the night, let's get dangerous (Thief)
We not the type to point fingers (Nah)
She took the pipe, now she famous (Smash)
It's plenty paper in rotation (Woo)
Let's pick a private location (Let's go)
It's a no relation vacation (Let's roll)
Went crazy, now let's go amazing
You could pick out your favorite purse (Yeah, yeah)
Bitch, better get your paperwork
Back on that for the paper (Cash)
Back on that for the paper (Woo)
Back on that for the paper (Woo)
Back on that for the paper (Woo)
Back on that for the paper (Woo)

[Break]
Bunda, bunda, bunda, bunda, bunda, bunda, bunda, bunda, bunda
Bunda, bunda, bunda, bunda, bunda, bunda, bunda, bunda, bunda

[Verse 2: Ty Dolla $ign & Quavo]
Baby, chill, don't worry 'bout that
You don't need a real job
Forget about all the problems
You can go call your mama
Tell her you married to the mob
This one is a real vibe
Lay back, enjoy the ride
Lay back, enjoy the ride
Lay back, enjoy the ride
Lay back, enjoy the ride (Quavo)
Lay back, enjoy the ride

[Verse 3: Quavo & Kanye West]
Paying you, I'm late for work (Work)
My excuse, I pay for twerk (Twerk)

She prefer we play in Turks
It's a pay per view, don't play with her (No)
Drunk off X, it was supposed to be percs
Let me get my paper right
Said she the voice, who she supposed to be, Durk?
Then come out, let's play tonight
How about I ask you this question first (Ooh, yeah, yah)
What you gon' do for this baby Birk'? (Okay, yeah)
She said it's giving, she's s'posed to serve (Okay, yeah)
I said, "What would you do if the roles reverse?"
She said, "You'll make mami late for work"

You'll make mami late for work
You'll make mami late for work
You'll make mami late for work
You'll make mami late for work

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
