Biografía:
The Paper Chase (a veces escrito "the pAper chAse") es una banda de rock alternativo (o noise rock) formada en 1998 por John Conglenton (cantante, guitarrista, compositor y productor de la banda), en Dallas, Texas. Desde su origen, The Paper Chase ha producido en su música una combinación de melodías discordantes y "noise pop", descripta por los críticos como "una agresiva estructura mezcla de avant-garde jazz, noise, indie y punk". Han sido comparados a bandas tan disímiles como Drive Like Jehu y King Crimson.

A
A
Let's hear it for circuits
A
lines drawn in the earth
A
cut to scramble for ample
D
little mouse hole to park your new car

A
with teeth we are losing from slow, comfy screwings
A
three cheers for the backseats
D
you legs pinned that look in your eye
A
you'll never take me alive
E
this is what you are
A
you are what you are
A
let's hear it for mirrors
A
with the ghost image clearer
D
hip hip for the pig that religiously belts you undone
A
this little piggy had none
A
'cause god hates our country
A
she told me she wants me to sing out "he's female!"
