"Master of Muppets"

The Lyrics

Jim Henson was at play, crumbling away
Making puppets never needed instruction
He made a puppet deer, with one missing ear
Henson abandoned the deer with destruction

Kermit, you will see
Was the first commodity
Miss Piggy came too
And that was all it took

Sesame came crawling after
Obey the master
Jim Henson is the master
Obey the master
Master

Master of Muppets, he's pulling their strings, yeah
Counting the numbers and play make believe
Sesame Street, you can't see a thing
That didn't come from Henson's dream
Master, master
Just watch the show, monsters scream
Master, master
Elmo!

Then came Telly, and then Baby Bear
Monster roster becoming clearer
Playing Monopoly was always a misery
Eat your breakfast with Ernie and Bert

Kermit, you will see
Was the first commodity
Miss Piggy came too
And that was all it took

Sesame came crawling after
Obey the master
Jim Henson is the master
Obey the master
Master

Master of Muppets, he's pulling their strings, yeah
Counting the numbers and play make believe
Sesame Street, you can't see a thing
That didn't come from Henson's dream
Master, master
Just watch the show, monsters scream
Master, master
Elmo!

Master, master
It's make believe, letters and numbers
Master, master
Count promised one to five
Laughter, laughter
Elmo's frigging laughter
Laughter, laughter
I hope that Elmo dies

Fix me, Big Bird

Big Bird's habitat, natural disaster
Came blowing down on his nest
Neverending maze, different number every day
Why does this show never have seasons

I will occupy my time
On Elmo and Cookie
Muppets run through you
Now they rule you too

Sesame came crawling after
Obey the master
Jim Henson is the master
Obey the master
Master

Master of Muppets, he's pulling their strings, yeah
Counting the numbers and play make believe
Sesame Street, you can't see a thing
That didn't come from Henson's dream
Master, master
Just watch the show, monsters scream
Master, master
Elmo!

It's a good idea, but there are many lines that don't rhyme or pace right. But it's not terrible, just seems a little forced...

Have to agree with SJ. In a word: average. PS- SJ KNOWS his Metallica very well ( especially this song ).
