Never been a fortunate son Never been the down & out one Good to know you think that I’m done So say what you want, Say what you want son
I’ve been called the good & the bad The ugly only those that wish that they had Built from mud so sling what you have Say what you want, Say what you want son I’ll be the witch you need for the hunt Grab a fork, light a torch, let em come But I’ve got demons of my own that should run So say what you want, Say what you want son
Strings strings strings are pulling you So speak as puppets do But silence holds the truth oh, oh Wooden words and plated shoes You dance but you don't move Just live through hands that do oh, oh
Not gonna be the devil you need Not moved by the beg & the plead You claim the saint but it’s sinners you need So say what you want, Say what you want son Never been the angel you pray Never been the devil you claim You can try but this soul don’t need saved So say what you want, Say what you want son
Strings strings strings are pulling you So speak as puppets do But silence holds the truth oh, oh Wooden words and plated shoes You dance but you don't move Just live through hands that do oh, oh
I'll be here when the crying is done Wondering where all the noises came from The eagle never pays mind to the dove Say what you want, say what you want son
Strings strings strings are pulling you So speak as puppets do But silence holds the truth oh, oh Wooden words and plated shoes You dance but you don't move Just live through hands that do oh, oh
