Marionettes With Halos - Alphaville

Imperial goliath — lost in unhelpful space

And You-Know-Who's creating islands — of increasing entropy

Mesmerised circus monkeys — dissolve like Quaaludes in lemonade

Industrial moguls trot out their sermons

They’re all — they’re begging for a new sound

Marionettes with halos sell out their rights,.

oooh, crack, baby, crack

Marionettes with halos, immortalized, doomed variety acts

Marionettes with halos sell out their rights, crack, baby, crack

You’re so full of lies — pimped in x-factor make-up

Applause over end credits as the ghouls leave the theatre

You maybe very sexy but you’re not an artist at all

Karaoke pipe dreams of rock n roll eunochs

Proclaiming Dick Rowe for their hero

Marionettes with halos sell out their rights,.

oooh, crack, baby, crack

Marionettes with halos, immortalized, doomed variety acts

Marionettes with halos sell out their rights,.

oooh, crack, baby, crack

Marionettes with halos sell out their rights,.

oooh, crack, baby, crack

Marionettes with halos, immortalized, doomed variety acts

Marionettes with halos sell out their rights,.

oooh, crack, baby, crack

Marionettes with halos sell out their rights

Marionettes with halos

Crack, baby, crack

Crack, baby, crack

Crack, baby, crack

Oooh, crack, baby, crack
