Lobotomy Songtext
von My Enemies & I

Like a child watching puppets
At a matinee
They don't see the hand
Controlling every move they make
Having too much fun to see
The man that's pulling all the stings
Hiding just beyond the curtain

You've got freedom
You've got rights
But know you're still a slave
You don't see the hand
Controlling every move you make
Step in line and you'll receive
Your worry free lobotomy
Waiting just beyond the curtain
Just beyond the curtain


Happy and free
As they all dance on a string
Let's turn the music up louder
Blocking out everything
While you help create
The all-American hate
I'm not a puppet on a string
I'm not a candidate
For this lobotomy

It's so much easier to laugh
And look the other way
The power that be
Broadcast the image
Everything's ok
Nobody sees that there's a war
Happening right outside your door
They hide it just beyond the curtain
Just beyond the curtain

Happy and free
As they all dance on a string
Let's turn the music up louder
Blocking out everything
While you help create
The all-American hate
I'm not a puppet on a string
I'm not a candidate
For this lobotomy


(No strings pulling me)
(Yeah)

Like a child watching puppets
At a matinee
They don't see the hand
Controlling every move you make
Having too much fun to see
The man that's pulling all the stings
Hiding just beyond the curtain
Just beyond the curtain

Happy and free
As they all dance on a string
Let's turn the music up louder
Blocking out everything
While you help create
The all-American hate
I'm not a puppet on a string
I'm not a candidate
For this lobotomy
For this lobotomy
