Puppets Lyrics

German puppets burnt the Jews
Jewish puppets did not choose
[ Lyrics from: http://www.cloverlyrics.com/e128114-leonard_cohen~puppets_lyrics.html ]
Puppet vultures eat the dead
Puppet corpses they are fed

Puppet winds and puppet waves
Puppet sailors in their graves

Puppet flower, puppet stem
Puppet time dismantles them

Puppet me and puppet you
Puppet German, puppet Jew

Puppet presidents command
Puppet troops to burn the land

Puppet fire, puppet flames
Feed on all the puppet names

Puppet lovers in their bliss
Turn away from all of this

Puppet reader shakes his head
Takes his puppet wife to bed

Puppet me and puppet you
Puppet German, puppet Jew

Puppet presidents command
Puppet troops to burn the land

Puppet fire, puppet flames
Feed on all the puppet names

Puppet night comes down to play
The after-act to puppet day
