Hey there old puppeteer
You’re doing pretty good
Except Your million puppets are
Not really in the mood.
And maybe it seems fine
And you don’t really care
Be careful and cheer them up,
Its everyone’s affair
Cos if this go on they’ll bring you down
As mission bell still rings
Beware, as your puppets’ll hang you
With those puppets’ strings
Hey there old puppeteer
The million dresses you wear
While all your dummies hang on walls are kinda unfair
You earn your silver with their hands
When you’re on the stage
Oh trust me you don’t wanna see
None of them outraged.
Cos if this go on they’ll bring you down
The spirit that they have
Will break away and find a way
To part you right in half
Hey there old puppeteer
The secrets that you keep
Are poisonous and so they won’t
let you fall asleep
And Someday in those one of your
Ten thousand and one nights
They will get off your house’s walls
And they will kill the lights
As this go on they’ll bring you down
As you will close your eyes
Beware as your puppets’ll hang you
And It will be no surprise.
Hey there old puppeteer
Tell how much you’ve paid
To crossroad demon who you wished
Those puppets to create
They do your work for you
Until you wrap ‘em up
And You’re the best around
But soon the time is up.
The time will come they’ll bring you down
There is no doubt for that
You’ve set the deal and so it will
Come collect your debt.
