I'm A Marionette

"you're so free", that's what everybody's telling me

Yet i feel i'm like an outward-bound, pushed around, refugee

Something's wrong, got a feeling that i don't belong

As if i had come from outer space, out of place, like king kong



I'm a marionette, just a marionette, pull the string

I'm a marionette, everybody's pet, just as long as i sing

I'm a marionette, see my pirouette, round and round

I'm a marionette, i'm a marionette, just a silly old clown



Like a doll, like a puppet with no will at all

And somebody told me how to talk, how to walk, how to fall



Can't complain, i've got no-one but myself to blame

Something's happening i can't control, lost my hold, is it safe?



I'm a marionette, just a marionette, pull the string

I'm a marionette, everybody's pet, just as long as i sing

I'm a marionette, see my pirouette, round and round

I'm a marionette, i'm a marionette, just a silly old clown



"look this way, just a little smile", is what they say

"you look better on the photograph if you laugh, that's okay"



I'm a marionette, just a marionette, pull the string

I'm a marionette, everybody's pet, just as long as i sing

I'm a marionette, see my pirouette, round and round

I'm a marionette, i'm a marionette, just a silly old clown



"you're so free", that's what everybody's telling me

Yet i feel i'm like an outward-bound, pushed around, refugee
