The Puppet |
| I’ll practice my fall |
| For practice makes perfect |
| Chained to the wall |
| For maximum hold |
| The window’s too far |
| Too far from my legs |
| Open the door and let out the cold |
| You knew about this |
| With your head in your hands |
| All along |
| I was the puppet |
| I was the puppet |
| Trampolines broken |
| Ceiling has come down |
| The ache in my back tells me |
| Something’s gone wrong |
| Rocking horse rocks |
| As the wallpaper peels |
| Curtain would like to know |
| What he has done |
| You knew about this |
| With your head in your hands |
| All along |
| I was the puppet |
| I was the puppet |
| We’re the salt of the earth (I'll practice my fall for practice makes perfect) |
| And we know what to say |
| (Chained to the wall for maximum hold) |
| We’re the salt of the earth |
| (The window’s too far too far from my legs) |
| And we know our place |
| (Open the door and let out the cold) |
| You knew about this |
| With your head in your hands |
| All along |
| I was the puppet |
| I was the puppet |
| All along |
| (You knew about this) |
| With your head in your hands |
| All along |
| (You knew about this) |
| I was the puppet |
| I was the puppet |
| (You knew about this) |
| Head in your hands |
| (You knew about this) |
| I was the puppet |
| I was the puppet |
| (We're the salt of the earth) |
| You knew about this |
| (We know what to say) |
| Your head in your hands |
| (We're the salt of the earth) |
| All along |
| ((You knew about this)) |
| (We know our place) |
| I was the puppet |
| (We're the salt of the earth) |
| All along |
| (We know what to say) |
| ((You knew about this)) |
| Your head in your hands |
| (We're the salt of the earth) |
| I was the puppet |
| ((You knew about this)) |
| (We know what to say) |
| I was the puppet |
