Puppet Show

The great puppet show
The puppeteer hones his craft
perform in a mirror
make yourself laugh

the characters are different
their voices unique
the show's entertaining
it's all but complete

but if you put on the show
what comes next you must know
which can be frustrating
just like masturbating

don't follow the strings
they're tied to your hand
watch the characters move
don't try to command

play your role
say your lines
we know this world
can be unkind

we can't escape
no place to hide
so we might as well
enjoy the ride
