Ventriloquist/Dummy Songtext
von Abstract Concrete

It′s not me doing the talking
Read my lips, I'm not moving my mouth
I am the ventriloquist
Got this whole routine nailed down

Everybody′s looking at the dummy
Like it's his mouth the words come out
He says each word exactly how I want it
He has no choice, I am his voice

I've got this dummy by the bollocks
Got his kidneys and I′ve got his spleen
I′ve got his lungs and digestive system
Life support machine

My name is Charlie, I'm the dummy
He sits me down upon his knee
Everybody can see what′s really happening
Suspension of disbelief
I say each word exactly how he wants it
I have no choice, he is my voice


This bastard's got me by the short and curlies
He′s got my piss, he's got my snot, he′s got my shit
Blood supply, nervous system
Intensive care unit

It's all a load of fucking bollocks
Locked up in a box, let me out, let me out, let me out
Load of bollocks locked up in a box, let me out, let me out, let me out
Let me out, let me out, let me out, let me out, let me out, let me out, let me out

Let me out
Let me out
Let me out

Everybody can see what's really happening
We just see what we want to see
Everybody knows what′s happening, man
Suspension of disbelief

Everybody′s looking at the dummy
Like it's his mouth the words come out
Everybody can see what′s really happening
Suspension of disbelief

He says each word exactly how I want it
He has no choice, I am his voice
There is no choice! His master's voice!
