Lyrics

You take a mortal man And put him in control Watch him become a God Watch people's heads a-roll A-roll A-roll Just like the pied piper Led rats through the streets We dance like marionettes Swaying to the symphony of destruction Acting like a robot It's metal brain corrodes You try to take its pulse Before the head explodes Explodes Explodes Argh Just like the pied piper Led rats through the streets We dance like marionettes Swaying to the symphony Just like the pied piper Led rats through the streets We dance like marionettes Swaying to the symphony Swaying to the symphony of destruction The Earth starts to rumble World powers fall A warring for the heavens A peaceful man stands tall A-tall A-tall Just like the pied piper Led rats through the streets We dance like marionettes Swaying to the symphony Just like the pied piper Led rats through the streets We dance like marionettes Swaying to the symphony Swaying to the symphony of destruction
