Puppeting
Navigate your boatKeeping it afloatRound and round and round andRound and round and round the moatWho pulls on your strings?Who controls your things?Puppet, puppet, puppet, puppet,PuppetingWho loves the greedy man,Who loves the needy man,Who loves the colored man,Who loves the other, who loves me?Rolling down the trackClickety-clickety-clackRolling, rolling, rolling, rolling,Rolling, rolling backSitting in your chairBreathing poisoned airFat and flabby, tetch and crabbyNo one really caresWho loves the greedy man,Letras de cancionesWho loves the needy man,Who loves the colored man,Who loves the other, who loves me?Your eyes I close with masking tapeYour ears I flood with mortarYour mind is full and solid stateYour mouth's a tape recorderBut somewhere in that sea of wasteA thought was left unprogrammedDo not bend or mutilateAnd give a thought to no manAnd you would hold the cards of fateAnd look into the lightYou'd think you'd see the holes were not the sameAnd something wasn't rightYeah, put it back until it's rightComputers do no wrongProgram, program, program, programmedUntil all life is goneAnd I can read my epitaph punched into my cardboard tombstoneHere lies 689777Here lies 689777Here lies 6897-7-7Here lies the needy manHere lies the greedy manHere lies the colored manHere lies the other, here lies me...
