Puppet Master ...

We have a guy inside our room.

He speaks with a loud voice of boom.

We laughingly call him the puppet-master.

But he is more like the master-blaster!

He's always instigating the other guy.

Like he's his voice like some kind of Mr. Sly.

That's why he's the puppeteer and the other guy his dummy.

Because he just sits there like a big ole' mummy.

The puppet-master is constantly speaking loud.

You can always hear him above any crowd.

His mouth is forever going.

Only to further our point and keep us knowing.

His cutting remarks always make us laugh.

Including the rest of our company staff.

When he is absent from our room.

Our room becomes as silent as a tomb.
