Thomas Dolby - Puppet Theatre Lyrics
One more night in the puppet theater
And I'm dancing on a string
One more pawn for the puppet master
The lines are drawn the hook is in
For a plaything
But I'm crying real tears
In an ocean of gold
We are half of a million people
And our limbs have lost control
And we play the machines a dozen at a time
The only song we know
One more night in the puppet theater
One more pawn for the puppet master
The lines are drawn the hook is in
Same old night in the puppet theater
Same old dancing on a string
One more pawn for the puppet master
Can't take it any more, the hook is in
In the surgery of the open heart
There's a soldier on every fader
And a madman in control
And he plays the machine for hours at a time
The only song he knows
So I wound up alone on the dance floor
And a laser hit me in the eye
I began to feel my body dissolving
Melting in a pool of light
And they need me
For a plaything
But I'm crying...
