Absurd Puppet

[prospect]

So i tried to create something similar to paint a vulgar picture. I tried, have i failed?

Absurd Puppet


Everybody was happy for you when you signed
You gave the record company you soul and mind
In the hope your dreams would materalise
So do another interview and sing a bunch of lies

You were told they would make you a star
But its like you’re watching it from afar
Is this how you imagined it to be?
Escape from your old life, but you’re still not free

You are just an absurd puppet
Pushed forward by the faces behind
Absurd puppet
With a boardroom for puppeteers

Make another record with songs they suggest
Not one note of opposition was expressed
the money keeps piling up in their bank account
but soon your records will all be sold at discount

You are just an absurd puppet
Pushed forward by the faces behind
Absurd puppet
With a boardroom for puppeteers
You are just an absurd puppet
Pushed forward by the faces behind
Absurd puppet
With a boardroom for puppeteers


You were told if that if you don’t make any trouble
They’ll protect you inside their corporate bubble
But your album only reached number sixty two
And that might just be the end of you.

Pushed back into the life you tried to escape
But they’ll milk the re-issue, and a greatest hits takes shape
Making money off of your name, it doesn’t seem right
But you are now a stranger over night.
