10,000 Maniacs - You Happy Puppet lyric

Ringtones Ringtone: Send You Happy Puppet Ringtone to your Cell Phone!


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.
