Meeting the kingpin, I'm slightly nervous

But there's just certain rules here we can not bend



Paperman How about the water? My cistern's flat.



Pullman

Forget about da tings you learned in school

We use a different box of tools

And you gotta play by Kinja rules



Pullman

Now dis alien ain't bonded for no gondolier

He's bonded for GARDENER-dat why he here

De Chief of Immigration a power in dis town

Chief find out-your hotel close down



Paperman

Hereafter gardening's all he'll do I didn't know, I swear to you



Pullman

Doan' hoross yourself, it's okay mister

De Chief of Immigration-she's my sister

Paperman

Pullman

Hold you hosses I come to dat

Look at da chambermaid, she mighty fat

And if dat alien have her baby here

Dat baby an AMERICAN, free and clear

De Secretary of Interior, he gonna rave

And dat baby on your record

From da cradle to da grave

Your responsibility-I doan mean maybe

Da bottom line sir, dat YOUR BABY



Chorus

You gotta play by Kinja rules

Forget about da tings you learned in school

We use a simple box of tools

And you gotta play by Kinja rules



Paperman

Pullman

No problem, lots of watah you can buy



Paperman

Buy water, Senator?

Pullman

Chorus

Forget about da tings you learned in school

And you gotta play by Kinja rules



Paperman

Senator, I thank you.

Now one thing's clear

I've got to hire a Kinjan gondolier



Pullman

Now dat a problem-



Paperman

What's the reason



Pullman

No unemployment-it's high season

Can't hire no Kinjan to wear dis hat



Paperman

And I can't use an alien?



Pullman

Don't ask dat



Paperman

You've been a great help, sir-you've got my vote

Just tell me-who's going to row that boat?



Pullman

Forget about da tings you learned in school

Just take it easy, play it cool

But be sure to



Paperman joins Pullman



Play by Kinja rules

But forget the Ten Commandments here
