Puppet Show

Alright people, time to break it down
way down, you don't mind do you?
Yeah you know this one
all you're watching is a puppet show people
did I give it away?
Listen up now

Well let me tell you something bout the space station
it's only really there in your imagination
that thing ain't real it's science fiction
it's there to feed your space addiction
those astronauts are not in space
it's written all over their stupid face

I can spot a liar from a 100 miles
I can spot a fraud from the way they smile
didn't ya learn nothing from the fake moon mission
that  puppet show from president Nixon
well listen up they're doing it again it seems
check out the harnesses and green screens

I used to work a lot in film and TV
I know a bit about the television trickery
to create the illusion that your somewhere your not
a green screen is what you're gonna use a lot
or if you wear a harness and attach it to the ceiling
the illusion that you're floating is what they'll be believing 

All you're watching is a puppet show 
yeah the whole worlds a stage
astronauts they’re actors of course
and yeah they all get paid
look at me ma I'm floating in space
no your not your lying to the human race

So let me tell you little something bout a zero g plane
this thing flies up and then down again
some weird stuff happens If you're on the inside
you start to float as the plane takes a dive
simply add an actor that's trained to deceive
and you got yourself an astronaut or so you believe

Plane flies up that's everyone's cue
then ACTION we got some deceiving to do
plane flies down then everyone knows
to start the ISS live show
floating in a plane with zero g
but you only see astronauts on your tv!

All you're watching is a puppet show 
yeah the whole worlds a stage
astronauts they’re actors of course
and yeah they all get paid
look at me ma I'm floating in space
no your not your lying to the human race

and everyone here know it right?

Well another thing I noticed when I looked at these fools
they're filming all the space walks in buoyancy pools
NASAs gonna tell you that it's just for training
to practice, for space station maintaining
well I thought about that but if that's the case
then why the hell can I see bubbles in space

Take a hard look at the next space walk
and tell me if you can see bubbles at all
open your eyes man, I'll bet you a quarter
those space walks are all filmed under water
I can see space bubbles everywhere
hey NASA How the hell did those get there?

All you're watching is a puppet show 
yeah the whole worlds a stage
astronauts they’re actors of course
and yeah they all get paid
look at me ma I'm floating in space
no your not your lying to the human race

yes you are

So when you see an astronaut aboard the ISS
take another look at your TV set
they're pretty good at faking so you gotta look close
pay some attention to the way the actor "floats"
if you ask me that ain't zero gravity
but Hollywood effects that I see on my TV 

Take a good look at the whole damn thing
these lying rascals are just puppets on a string
it’s all a big science fiction puppet show
the games up nassholes coz we all know
thanks for the show NASA it's been a blast
now take your fake station and ........

All you're watching is a puppet show 
yeah the whole worlds a stage
astronauts they’re actors of course
and yeah they all get paid
look at me ma I'm floating in space
no your not your lying to the human race

All you're watching is a puppet show
