lyrics

sock puppet
where do you think you go
in my pocket
i have cash that flows
trapped in my cellar
you circle me one more time

sock puppet
you think i'm some machine
just drop it
face my true regime
trapped in my cellar
you circle me one more time

sock puppet
don't like this tattered dress
then cut it
it's all you'll ever get
trapped in my cellar
you circle me one more time

sock puppet
been living my e'vry farce
you'll love it
i remain in charge
trapped in my cellar
you circle me one more time

sock puppet
lonely on your strings
just wasted
and feel how that stings
trapped in my cellar
you circle me one more time

sock puppet
t'was easy to avoid
you forced it
left me in control
trapped in my cellar
you circle me one more time

sock puppet
you think it's all a game
can't stop it
call me by my name
trapped in my cellar
you circle me six more times

sock puppet
you made your final call
what trumpets
are blasting through my walls
trapped in my cellar
you circle me one last time

poor jericho
is that's all you think you know
rahab had a window
you passed your crown
it's your turn to bow
