Bbmaj.7, Fmaj.7 x2
Verse 1
Bbmaj.7 Fmaj.7
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?
Chorus
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?
Verse 2
Bbmaj.7 Fmaj.7
How did they teach you to be
Just a happy puppet dancing on a string
How do you.........manage to live in-
-side this tiny stage you can't leave?
Chorus
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?
Break
A dullard strung on the wire
When the master's gone, you hang there
With your eyes and your limbs so lifeless
Chorus
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?
Verse 3
Bbmaj.7 Fmaj.7
How did they teach you to be
Just a happy puppet dancing on a string
How do you........manage to speak
Bbmaj.7 F
Your mouth....a frozen grin?
Break
A dullard strung on the wire
When the master's gone, you hang there
With your eyes and your limbs so lifeless
Chorus
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?
FINISH WITH-
Your hollowed head, your marble eyes
Your wooden hands and your metal jawpins
All wait in limbo for the man
Who knows how to move you this way
