Puppet Master

Expression of ideas with a sock
The puppet master shows part of his skill
We listen, he makes the characters talk

Imagination the key to the lock
We're somewhat surprised he gives us a thrill
Expression of ideas with a sock

They say you have to crawl before you walk
I guess this is the way he pays his bills
We listen, he makes the characters talk

He opens up doors with a subtle knock
With story telling he gives us our fill
Expression of ideas with a sock

There is so much laughter mixed with some shock
Lost in the excitement staying real still
We listen, he makes the characters talk

The puppet master he really does rock
He controls the strings we go where he wills
Expression of ideas with a sock
We listen, he makes the characters talk
