The Boy Who Wanted to Be a Real Puppet
Lyricist:Billy Foster, Ellington Jordan
So many years ago Many more than I intended to bear in my mind From the darkest of the places, I found you
All the little scene, there my place is And a heart made of real gold Sell me your little doll, oh sir, I ask you kind
Every night I return to watch them The master and the puppet in the show He said 'Oh, no, I cannot sell him Priceless he is, masterpiece of mine'
'Please sell me your puppet sir Name your price, oh please Whatever you may ask Can form the price I'll pay'
'Did I not make it clear? This debate is over I will never part from this puppet, my son'
With hungry eyes, I follow them all night Blind master and the puppet he had made 'No sir, to sell is not my will The doll is mine even if I have to kill'
So it shall be if this is what it takes Greed is truly blinder than me Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Heart of gold is what you wish for So this little boy wants to be a puppet for real
So I have a broken heart Now only needing the voice of the master Never feel hunger, never grow older My dream was to be a star in a real puppet show
It's so hard to remember my life The times before the show Can I ever cut off the strings? 'Take a bow, now dance and sing, sing'
Would you turn me into a child again? 'No, never, I am your guide' You can see a small grin on the face Of the master with the puppet 'Sing and dance'
Be careful of what you wish for Wish is my kind of lie The prides are fooling me every day and night
The show, the theater and all the fame I'd give it away for a life Some things can end with a word, they're saying This only ends with a sharp knife, knife
