Dig that deal and be a millionaire
Drinking cocktails in the stratosphere
Getting jet-lagged with my business friends
In these supersonic wonderlands
So full of lies
Pimped in X-factor make-up
People scream through broken fingers
Their state of confusion
Through rolling stone jesters
Proclaiming Dick Rowe for their hero

Marionettes with halos sell out their rights
Oooh, crack, baby, crack
Marionettes with halos immortalized
Doomed variety acts

Imperial Goliath lost in an unhelpful space
And you know who's creating islands
Of increasing entropy
And mesmerized circus monkeys
Dissolve like quaaludes in lemonade
Industrial moguls trot out their sermons
They're all, they're begging for a new sound

Marionettes with halos sell out their rights
Oooh, crack, baby, crack
Marionettes with halos immortalized
Doomed variety acts

Marionettes with halos sell out their rights
Oooh, crack, baby, crack
Marionettes with halos immortalized
Oooh, crack, baby, crack

You're so full of lies
Pimped in X-factor make-up
Applause over end credits
As the ghouls leave the theater
You may be very sexy
But you're not an artist at all
Karaoke pipe dreams of rock'n'roll eunuchs
Proclaiming Dick Rowe for their hero

Marionettes with halos sell out their rights...
You gotta sell your soul
