Lyrics
Hand over the controller man
You're older than Jesus in a Neolithic scene
On the edges of Egypt
But you don't diss the dead
And you don't damn the dying
I don't make fun for forgetting
I don't taunt folks for trying
But the mind isn't able
And the body ain't willing
On the strings that they're tugging
On the puppet they're killing
Oh man, if you're in there
In there, Mister Joe
Tell the master of puppets
We all said hello, hello
There's a whole lot of hating
And a whole lot of fighting
Can't even go to Thanksgiving
Without being divided
I'd be naive to believe
That either side cared
About me more than power
Enough to keep me aware
I could be under the bombs
Living in mortal panic
But I'm USA born
It's a lucky accident
Oh man, if you're in there
In there, Mister Joe
Tell the master of puppets
We all said hello
Oh man, if you're in there
And it's all just your pride
I guess it's your choice to make
'Cause it sure isn't mine
