Depeche Mode - Puppets Lyrics






Get that feeling
Head is reeling
You think you're in control
But you don't know me babe
I can move you
I can soothe you
I can take you places in a different way

I don't think you understand
What I'm trying to say
I'll be your operator baby
I'm in control

Watch your action
Close reaction
And everything you're thinking babe inside your head
Conversation, my creation
Nothing that you do
You do unless I said

You don't know the consequences
Of the things you say
I'll be your operator baby
I'm in control

All the things you tried to do babe
And all the words we said before
Are only part of what I started baby
And you can't stop me anymore

    When Vince Clarke has got more hair 😂. Btw, he's the Depeche Mode soul

  29. l.... ....

    The original didnt have song number two listed here
    Puppets was the second song
    Thinking of Me was the third
    the rest is ok.

    It is way better all together musically and sequentially.

    This album was very mainstream but gay-ish in 1981. a few Couple of boys would get together and sing it in the school., hallways, swimming pool ha ha
    Sooo gay but so much fun.

  30. F.... S....

    I first heard this song for the 1st time in about 1988/89 when I was about 6 years old. Driving across europe sat in the back of my parents gold renault 18. They played this tape and after it finished it took it desperate to hear again. it was a copied cassete tape from vinyl of the speak and spell album. I listened to this on my mums yellow sony walkman, on repeat for every journey of that holiday across europe. Very good memories. I fell in love with puppets, no disco and photographic. I used up so many cheap batteries rewinding to hear these songs again. I have massively loved Depeche mode ever since and believe those songs shaped and started my journey into all realms of electronic synthesised music. :) xxxxx

  40. I.... L....

    Depeche are most definitly kings now same as when “speak and spell” came out-)
    Just love ‘em❕ They’ve been my reason for reason when there was none and
    everything was bleak and black except when i would listen to them. In a way, they
    saved me (and no, it’s not exaggeration, it’s just ugly truth). Personal feelings aside,
    what they did over 30years ago is so much better than most of the music 2day.
    They did magic with tech available then, like wizards, they made musical wonders
    and havent stoped yet & hopefully won’t for the long,long time👽❕

  41. N.... F....

    my. Boyfriend. ask. me. do. I. like. this. song. because. he. does

    N.... F....

    Natalie Fells your boyfriend should show you punctuation and how to write proper sentences.

  42. C.... C....

    Adoro esta canción

  43. A.... S....

    I love Depeche Mode and all their studio albums from Speak & Spell to Spirit! Respect to Vince Clarke, ex member of Depeche Mode! 1981 is the year I was born!

    A.... S....

    Andrius Stasiukynas it’s amazing you love all their albums considering they haven’t made a good album since Ultra, that’s dedication.

    A.... S....

    Squire Muldoon what’s really amazing is your inability to understand music is personal and all a matter of preference and in no way dictated or decided by yours.

  44. b.... ....

    The best song off Speak And Spell. I love how it gets dark.

    b.... ....

    I'm sure it was the heroine that steered that darkness but YES! Great song.

  45. D.... .....

    I love this song

  46. m.... ....

    masterpiece! electronic genius!

  47. S.... H....

    In my top 30 with DM

  48. F.... D....

    A szinti pop gyöngyszeme.

  49. D.... W....

    The audio is fucked on the one where the uploader has 'chosen the rose' good to hear it DECENT again.

  50. j.... l....

    still dig this tune.. can you imagine this number remixed and done live (jazzed up)

  51. M.... B....

    Aww such an early Mode album, you can tell Dave's voice was still developing - he would've been 18 going on 19 when this was released

  52. G.... K....

    why does this make me think of Bannon and Trump? :-/

  53. J.... S....

    My mind always wants to mix "The Puppet" by Echo and the Bunnymen in when I hear this song. Always. 30 years later, it still happens.

    +Terry Cohen Quality mate, quality! Great song!

    T.... C....

    Vince Clarke Work that time

    T.... C....

    They still are 🌹🏴🤘

  62. J.... O....

    Vince Clarke.

    J.... O....

    @***** Maybe in the world that revolves around you there aren't.

    J.... O....

    @TheGodParticle No, hence why Vince left. They borrowed a little from "I will survive" which is a popular gay anthem and a nod to the lead singers (Bell's) sexuality. Vince has always been more for the lighter happier sounding vibe. Whereas, Martin and co. have always been more of what I would call pessimistic with a dash of hope. People would consider them realists and dark at times. Part Why the 80's goths who listened to bands like The Cure excepted them. Dave's voice is suited for that style of music.

    J.... O....

    well said

    J.... O....

    +amers83 Prior to this day I had been understanding this comment of yours as referring to Depeche Mode's choice of applying the tunes of "I Will Survive". They literally didn't do as much as Erasure did in "Love To Hate You" although "I Will Survive" clearly echoes through the whole album here, which is also interesting. But do you personally know the exact reason why Vince decided on leaving his first breakthrough band at the end of August (was it August or November now?)? Probably hardly anybody does...

  63. T.... N....

    I first heard "Black Celebration" on a memorex tape given to me by a friend, but this was the first DM I bought myself in '85. This song was an extreme turning point for me-along with "Photograhic". A song SO ahead of the times!!! And still is great!

    T.... N....

    Construction time again for me, landscape is changing was incredible. Great times

    T.... N....

    Ironically enough, Black Celebration was the first full album I copied to cassette–nonetheless, onto a Memorex!

    T.... N....

    Same goes for me. Photographic and Puppets are my faves on this album.

  64. I.... M....

    love you guys !!!!!!

  65. W.... L....

    Love this album!! Thanks.
