10000 ManiacsYou Happy Puppet (LP Ver.)

How did they teach you to be just a happy puppet dancing on a string
How did you learn everything that comes along with slavish funnery
Tell me something, if the world is so insane
is it making you sane again to let another man tug at the thread that pulls up your nodding head

How did they teach you to be just a happy puppet dancing on a string
How do you manage to live inside this tiny stage you can't leave
Tell me something, if the world is so insane
is it making you sane again to let another man tug at the thread that pulls up your nodding head

A dullard strung on the wire
When the master's gone you hang there with your eyes and your limbs so lifeless

How did they teach you to be just a happy puppet dancing on a string
How do you manage to speak, your mouth a frozen grin

A dullard strung on the wire
When the master's gone you hang there with your eyes and your limbs so lifeless

Tell me something, if the world is so insane
is it making you sane again to let another man tug at the thread that pulls up your empty wooden head

Your hollow head, your marble eyes, your wooden hands and your metal jaw pins
all wait in limbo for the man who knows how to move you this way
How did they teach you to be just a happy puppet dancing on a string
How did you learn everything that comes along with slavish funnery
Tell me something, if the world is so insane
is it making you sane again to let another man tug at the thread that pulls up your nodding head

How did they teach you to be just a happy puppet dancing on a string
How do you manage to live inside this tiny stage you can't leave
Tell me something, if the world is so insane
is it making you sane again to let another man tug at the thread that pulls up your nodding head

A dullard strung on the wire
When the master's gone you hang there with your eyes and your limbs so lifeless

How did they teach you to be just a happy puppet dancing on a string
How do you manage to speak, your mouth a frozen grin

A dullard strung on the wire
When the master's gone you hang there with your eyes and your limbs so lifeless

Tell me something, if the world is so insane
is it making you sane again to let another man tug at the thread that pulls up your empty wooden head

Your hollow head, your marble eyes, your wooden hands and your metal jaw pins
all wait in limbo for the man who knows how to move you this way
