So many years agoMany more than I intended to bear in my mindFrom the darkest of the places, I found youAll the little scene, there my place isAnd a heart made of real goldSell me your little doll, oh sir, I ask you kindEvery night I return to watch themThe master and the puppet in the showHe said Oh, no, I cannot sell himPriceless he is, masterpiece of minePlease sell me your puppet sirName your price, oh pleaseWhatever you may askCan form the price I'll payDid I not make it clear? This debate is overI will never part from this puppet, my sonWith hungry eyes, I follow them all nightBlind master and the puppet he had madeNo sir, to sell is not my willThe doll is mine even if I have to killSo it shall be if this is what it takesGreed is truly blinder than meHeart of gold is what you wish forSo this little boy wants to be a puppet for realSo I have a broken heartNow only needing the voice of the masterNever feel hunger, never grow olderMy dream was to be a star in a real puppet showIt's so hard to remember my lifeThe times before the showCan I ever cut off the strings?Take a bow, now dance and sing, singWould you turn me into a child again?No, never, I am your guideYou can see a small grin on the faceOf the master with the puppetSing and danceBe careful of what you wish forWish is my kind of lieThe prides are fooling me every day and nightThe show, the theater and all the fameI'd give it away for a lifeSome things can end with a word, they're sayingThis only ends with a sharp knife, knife
