Ogni riferimento a fatti e personaggi è completamente casuale e non ha nessun rapporto con la realta.... :-))

How did they teach you to be just a happy puppet, dancing on a string? How did you learn everything that comes along with slavish funnery? Tell me something, if the world is so insane, is making you sane, again, to let another man tug at the thread that pulls up your nodding head? How did they teach you to be just a happy puppet, dancing on a string? How do you manage to live inside this tiny stage, you can't leave? Tell me something, if the world is so insane, is it making you sane, again, to let another man tug at the thread that pulls up your nodding head? A dullard strung on the wire, when the master's gone, you hang there with your eyes and your limbs so lifeless. Tell me something, if the world is so insane, is it making you sane, again, to let another man tug at the thread that pulls up your nodding head? How did they teach you to be just a happy puppet, dancing on a string? How do you manage to speak, your mouth a frozen grin? A dullard strung on the wire, when the master's gone, you hang there with your eyes and your limbs so lifeless. Tell me something, if the world is so insane, is it making you sane, again, to let another man tug at the thread that pulls up your empty wooden head? Your hollow head, your marble eyes, your wooden hands and your metal jaw pins, all wait in limbo for the man who knows how to move you this way.

This song is obviously about the fanatics of Christianity who follow the dullard strung on the wire waiting for the Master to save them, while lifeless...the one who knows how to move them that way

I use to watch their videos on the first incarnation of VH1. I really enjoy Nat's voice.

I was always amazed at how Nathalie's voice always rose above the horrible music production on most of 10k Maniacs albums. I mean listen to a Sting album and then listen to 10k Maniacs music .... Bizarre !!!

Natalie made the band and this is a wonderful trip to better music and yes they were very understated but I guess at the time it just made them more personal to you like your own treasure. They deserved to have made more money for sure but they kept real and i respect Natalie and the band to this day for that.

They renewed the copyright. This song is from "Blind Man's Zoo," their 1989 album.

Hello, how are you? this is a very great song. I am older than you no doubt. I am 57 and that was right in the middle of the early 30's . So sorry about your mom, I believe she must have been of my generation. Was she? this was late 80's to me when this song was really popular. regards,

I didn't give much mind to 10000 maniacs back in the 80s, but my interest in the band has grown with time. They didn't happen by chance, all of them were really special.

Does anyone else think they realize this song is about US presidential elections?

The lyrics ring so true today and for such a long time. Imagine if people actually thought for themselves are far ahead a society we would be....
