The 1985 demo of (Put Your Hand Inside The) Puppet Head by They Might Be Giants, from their self-titled 1985 demo tape.
Lyrics:
As your body floats down third street
With the burn-smell factory closing up
Is it sad to say you will romanticize
All the things you've know before?
It was not not not so great
It was not not not so great
And as you take a bath in that beaten path
There's a pounding at the door
Well it's a mighty zombie
Talking of some love of posterity
That said the good ol' days never say goodbye
If you keep this in your mind
You need some lo-lo-lovin' arms
You need some lo-lo-lovin' arms
And as you fall from grace the only words you say are
Put your hand inside the puppet head
Put your hand inside the puppet head
Put your hand inside, put your hand inside
Put your hand inside the puppet head
Ads up in the subway are the work of
Someone trying to please their boss
You know the guy's a pig
We all know what he wants
Is just to please somebody else
If the pu-pu-puppet head
Was only bu-bu-busted in
It'd be a better thing
For everyone involved
And we wouldn't have to cry
Put your hand inside the puppet head
Put your hand inside the puppet head
Put your hand inside, put your hand inside
Put your hand inside the puppet head
Things!
Gotta do!
Head!
Puppet head!
(No! Gotta do!) Memo to myself
(Head! Puppet head!) Do the dumb things I gotta do
(Things! Gotta do! Hey! Puppet head!) Touch the puppet head
Quit my job down at the subway
Didn't have to write no one a goodbye note
That said the check's in the mail
And I'll see you at church
And don't you ever change
If the pu-pu-puppet head
Was only bu-bu-busted in
I'll see you after school
Put your hand inside the puppet head
Put your hand inside the puppet head
Put your hand inside, put your hand inside
Put your hand inside the puppet head
Put your hand inside the puppet head
Put your hand inside the puppet head
Put your hand inside, put your hand inside
Put your hand inside the puppet head
