LyricsPuppeteer

Captain I have something

that I must confess

Something that I

must get off my chest

Until it is said

I cannot rest

Captain

Eurylochus

go make sure this

island is secure

But captain

there's only so much left

we can endure

Whatever you need to say

can wait some more

Of that I'm sure

Okay

Eurylochus back so soon

Where's the rest

of your crew

And by the gods

what happened to you

We came across a palace

Inside we heard a voice

It seemed to

show no malice

To greet it

was our choice

But nothing could

prepare us for the power

that awaited inside

What did this palace hide

Sir

since we left home

we've faced a variety

of foes from a wide

range of places

Gods monsters you know

the roster hostile creatures

that we could resist

But this was a hell

of a twist

'cause we are weak

to a power like this

What was it

A woman

What

she had us

in just two words

Come inside

Damn

Welcome to the best

part of your lives

Go ahead and rest

wherever you like

I've got you

don't worry Circe's

got you now

Only I stayed outside

but the rest went in

Take a seat

Let me bring you all

something to eat

I bet you're tired

from the years

spent on your feet

I've got you

don't worry

Circe's got you now

By the time they ate

it was far too late

For inside the meal

Think of your past

She had cast a spell

And your mistakes

They began to squeal

They'll be the last

And grow snouts and tails

Mistakes you'll make

She changed them

I've got all the power

Yeah I've got

all the power

No I'm not a player

I'm a puppeteer

No I don't play

I puppeteer yeah

They transformed

This is the price

And it wasn't quick

We pay to live

She turned our men

The world does not

From men to pigs

Tend to forgive

She changed them

I've got all the power

Yeah I've got

all the power

No I'm not a player

I'm a puppeteer

No I don't play

I puppeteer yeah

We have to go save

them

no we don't

Look at all we've

lost and all

we've learned

Every single cost is

so much more than

what we've earned

Think about the men

we have left before

there's none

Let's just cut our

losses you and I

and let's run

Of course I'd

like to leave now

Of course I'd

like to run

But I can hardly

sleep now

knowing everything

we've done

There's no length

I wouldn't go

If it was you

I had to save

I can only hope

you'd do the same

I can hear her still

No one will find

And her voice deceives

Their way between

What if she can't be killed

My nymphs and I

Will you choose to leave

Their loving queen

I don't know

I've got all the power

Yeah I've got

all the power

No I'm not a player

I'm a puppeteer

No I don't play

I puppeteer yeah

She's a clever witch

this is the price

And she's hard to slay

We pay to love

It's a game of wits

We draw the line

But you don't have to play

Watch from above

I have to try

I've got all the power

Yeah I've got

all the power

No I'm not a player

I'm a puppeteer

No I don't play

I puppeteer yeah
