Marionette |
Marionette I haven’t met you yet |
I hear you’re good I hear you’re made out of wood |
Not quite as blind as you might think she’d be |
Her roots are deep, they run as deep as a tree |
And they cut off your wings and replaced them with strings |
Now the strings attach to everything |
It’s twisted and tangled and troubled with anger |
But somehow you still swing |
Tried all my tricks I tried to steal a kiss |
Splinters and slivers stuck all over my lips |
She thinks she must be doing something wrong |
Hair-pullin' strings and then they string you along |
And they cut off your wings and replaced them with strings |
Now the strings attach to everything |
It’s twisted and tangled but I’ve got an angle |
On just what makes you swing |
Hanging by a string |
She is wearing thin |
She’s up to workin' sometimes fours a day |
No, the boss he makes her do things his way |
So why do you think she’s so scared of ya |
What do you think makes her that way |
When push comes to shove she’ll push and shove |
It doesn’t always have to be this way |
She’s savin' up for a vacation somewhere |
Why do you think she’s so scared of you |
What do you think makes her that way |
When push comes to shove she’ll push and shove ya |
It’s very hard work when you don’t get paid |
And they cut off your wings and replaced them with strings |
