The Puppet-show Man Songtext
von Paper Window

I wish I were more than I am
A director of dolls in a box
But what if these puppets came alive

Flesh and blood, flesh and blood
You′re my children but you're not
For I make you come alive
For an hour every night
Flesh and blood, flesh and blood,
Flesh and blood, flesh and blood


I′d be a big man, a director
And we'd be your talented actors
But you might get out of line
Why would we get out of line?
Why are you yelling and crying?
Why did you get me yelling and crying?
Stop haunting me with your questions
I'm done taking your directions

Flesh and blood, flesh and blood
You′re my children but you′re not
For I make you come alive
For an hour every night
Flesh and blood, flesh and blood,
Flesh and blood, flesh and blood

My former wish had been foolish
My company is at ease
Now I am doing as I please
