Puppet on a String Lyrics
Like a puppet on a string
You hold on tight, you hold on tight
Like a puppet on a string
Like a puppet on a string
You hold on tight, you hold on tight
You hold on tight
Got your education from just hanging around
You got your brain from a hole in the ground
You come on up, look around for a will of your own
But you're mine, yeah
Like a puppet on a string
Like a puppet on a string
Like a puppet on a string
Like a puppet on a string
With porcelain eyes and the mind of a monkey
Rode into town on the back of what looked like a dead donkey
So I do to you what a puppet master would do
Can you tell? Yeah
Like a puppet on a string
Like a puppet on a string
Like a puppet on a string
Like a puppet on a string
You got your education from just hanging around
You got your brain from a hole in the ground
You come on up, look around for a will of your own
But your mind, yeah
Like a puppet on a string
You hold on tight, you hold on tight
Like a puppet on a string
Like a puppet on a string
You hold on tight, you hold on tight
You hold on tight
Like a puppet on a string
You hold on tight, you hold on tight
Like a puppet on a string
Like a puppet on a string
You hold on tight, you hold on tight
You hold on tight
You hold on tight, you hold on tight
Like a puppet on a string
Like a puppet on a string
You hold on tight, you hold on tight
You hold on tight
You got your brain from a hole in the ground
You come on up, look around for a will of your own
But you're mine, yeah
Like a puppet on a string
Like a puppet on a string
Like a puppet on a string
Rode into town on the back of what looked like a dead donkey
So I do to you what a puppet master would do
Can you tell? Yeah
Like a puppet on a string
Like a puppet on a string
Like a puppet on a string
You got your brain from a hole in the ground
You come on up, look around for a will of your own
But your mind, yeah
You hold on tight, you hold on tight
Like a puppet on a string
Like a puppet on a string
You hold on tight, you hold on tight
You hold on tight
You hold on tight, you hold on tight
Like a puppet on a string
Like a puppet on a string
You hold on tight, you hold on tight
You hold on tight

Oh Lord! No comments? How?
Well, this song is obviously about manipulation and people who cluelessly just let themselves be controlled by others when it's so obvious to everyone else what's going on.
Puppet on a string may be a cliche metaphor, but liek always, The Hives give it a brand-new unique sound! :D

this song reminds me of a clockwork orange.
