No puppet, no liar
Won't bend my limbs to wire, no
Don't pressurize me so
Don't gamble with my life
Or you won't live to do it twice
Oh, take some good advice from me
And let the wires work
I dressed in black, so nobody sees you
Smile in the wings, tell me I please you
Call me a king, and watch for the one worm to choke me
And you laugh at your act, the performance is poor
Watch the audience laugh as my head hits the floor
When I'm broken in half, you still reach for the saw
Well, stop, I've had enough of this
The pantomime's reverse
I need, you feed
I greed, you bleed
Marionette, I ain't one yet
Teacher's pet, oh, you better forget it
Marionette, I ain't one yet
Teacher's pet, go check your stocks and shares
And when the coffin comes
Make sure there's room for two
You live, I lead
I died, you're dead
Marionette, I ain't one yet
Teacher's pet, oh, you better forget it
Marionette, I ain't one yet
Teacher's pet, go check your product
A traitor, deceiver
A groovy disbeliever thought
A puppet was a thing she taught
Nullé
Creator, conceiver
Romantic love receiver caught
(Who are you?)
The nerve
(I wanna get out, I wanna get out)
(I wanna get out, I wanna get out, I wanna get out)
Ah!
Oh, he wanna play cards to the chick in the street
He wanna play words to a world that don't speak
He wanna play people who play hide and seek
When they don't count
He wanna play whist to the man with the wires
He wanna play lead, but his hands get tired
He just wanna play, but don't know how to say
Stop, okay, the show has been fun
But my wood's begun to warp
They won, I'm done
New one's begun
Marionette, I did my best
Teacher's pet, it just couldn't last
Marionette, get me out of this mess
Teacher's little pet, it happened so fast
Marionette, no, I need a rest
Teacher's pet, where's my sanity gone, my life?
Marionette, I did my best
Teacher's little pet, I'm just like all the others
They gambled with my life
And now I've lost my will to fight
Oh God, these wires are so tight
I'm just a marionette
