Mr. Joe lyrics

[Verse 1]
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 forgettin'
I don't taunt folks for trying
But the mind, isn't able
And the body ain't willin'
On the strings that they're tuggin'
On the puppet they're killin'

[Chorus]
Oh, man, if you're in there
In there Mr. Joe
Tell the master of puppets
We all said "Hello"
Hello

[Verse 2]
There's a wholе lot of hate
And a whole lot of fighting
Can't evеn go to Thanksgivin'
Without being divided
I'd 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
[Chorus]
Oh, man, if you're in there
In there, Mr. 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
