The Puppet Master Lyrics by Soul Assassins

The Soul Assassins: Chapter I

1997

[Intro]
Step right up, step right up
Come one, come all
Come and see the masters of the puppets, the puppeteers
Watch, as they amaze you, what they make the puppets do
This is coming to you directly from The Soul Assassins
No strings attached
[Verse 1: Dr. Dre]
I spark like a blunt's tip, somethin' cavi
Makin' Greene like Mitch, gives rap vocals dispatch
With every attempt, to have this game shook up
When Dre cook up, every thug look up
Chronic got me on tilt, eyes bloodshot, heavy built
Lay a nigga out like quilt, clear to gill
I rock for rollers, from lowriders to Henny toasters
Cut off dead weight to keep my formulas kosher
Accept no imitations
Dre losin' his stack is slim as chances
Of Michael Jackson gettin' his black fans back
My reputation's like a TEC-9
Knock out the best in a circle
Three minutes wreck time
See, the hand is faster than the eye can chase it
Dre, B-Real, Soul Assassins got potential buttons activated
No illusion, I have you caught up in the rapture
Executive decisions from the motherfucking puppet masters
[Chorus: B-Real & Dr. Dre]
You are the puppet, I pull your string, I'm makin' moves
I'm the master, causing you to do what you do (Puppet master)
You are the puppet, I pull your string, I'm makin' moves
I'm the master, causing you to do what you do (Puppet master)
You are the puppet, I pull your string, I'm makin' moves
I'm the master, causing you to do what you do (Puppet master)
You are the puppet, I pull your string, I'm makin' moves
I'm the master, causing you to do what you do (Puppet master)
[Post-Chorus: DJ Muggs scratches & Dr. Dre]
"Like a puppet on a string"
"Like a puppet on a string"
"Like a puppet on a string"
"Like a puppet on a string" (Puppet master)
"Like a puppet on a string"
"Like a puppet on a string"
"Like a puppet on a string"
"Like a puppet on a string" (Puppet master)
[Verse 2: B-Real]
We're pullin' strings, killin' kings
Cutting off pinky rings, seizin' control of the whole game
I took a pull from the blunt, inhaled it
Blew the smoke from my lungs into the world of hip-hop
Civilians turn into soldiers by the millions
Assassins, we multiply, by the masses
Masters of the game (Checkmate nigga) every move you make
Through manipulation is the move I choose for you to take
You see, what I want you to see
And you turn into whatever I want you to be
Whether it be, enemy or ally
The Aftermath results in Soul Assassins, worldwide
From coast to coast, I got soldiers on post
Injectin' you, with the high funk overdose
Dre and the Hill, stayin' Real
All you non-believin' ass niggas, get your cap peeled
Executive order make your time shorter
Get your recorder, play it back, puff your chronic sack
Your mind, body and soul have been captured
And taken captive, by the motherfuckin' puppet masters
[Chorus: B-Real & Dr. Dre]
You are the puppet, I pull your string, I'm makin' moves
I'm the master, causing you to do what you do (Puppet master)
You are the puppet, I pull your string, I'm makin' moves
I'm the master, causing you to do what you do (Puppet master)
You are the puppet, I pull your string, I'm makin' moves
I'm the master, causing you to do what you do (Puppet master)
You are the puppet, I pull your string, I'm makin' moves
I'm the master, causing you to do what you do (Puppet master)
[Post-Chorus: DJ Muggs scratches & Dr. Dre]
"Like a puppet on a string"
"Like a puppet on a string"
"Like a puppet on a string"
"Like a puppet on a string" (Puppet master)
"Like a puppet on a string"
"Like a puppet on a string"
"Like a puppet on a string"
"Like a puppet on a string" (Puppet master)
[Outro: Dr. Dre & DJ Muggs scratches]
The Soul Assassin button has now been activated
Dr. Dre and B-Real are providin' the verbal abuse
Any unauthorized duplication without the consent of my nigga Muggs may be fatal
That's right, this is comin' to you directly from the Hill y'all
All rights reserved
"Like a puppet on a string"
"Like a puppet on a string"
"Like a puppet on a string"
"Like a puppet on a string"
