The Puppeteer had lost a string,
The President said the wrong thing:
He made unthinkable demands –
A general gave wrong commands..

And this had changed the whole world order.
Red button pressed – no one gets older.
Chilling reality ensnares;
The game is over. Someone cares?

What games are played in the house,
That rules the world, yet — no one knows?
