Marionette |
He had a hold on you |
He was your puppeteer (Puppeteer) |
You did everything he wanted you to |
Now he’s not here, and you’re lost by fear |
'Cause now he’s not here |
Marionette, that’s what you get |
Marionette, that’s what you get |
Because you let him pull the strings |
That made you do the things that you’re so sorry for |
'Cause now he don’t love you no more |
(Love you no more) |
Woo, don’t you know he had complete control? |
(Complete control) |
Ah, you could do nothing alone (Complete control) |
Now without him you ain’t got no soul |
I tell you, you’re on your own |
Yeah, now that he’s gone |
Ooh, you’re on your own, woo |
Marionette, that’s what you get |
Ooh, Marionette, that’s what you get |
Because you let him pull the strings |
That made you do the things that you’re so sorry for |
'Cause now he don’t love you no more |
Don’t love you no more |
For you he was no good, no no |
He thought your heart was made of wood |
Yeah, yeah (Made of wood, made of wood) |
He made you act so strange (Foolish) |
Foolish and uncomposed, oh yeah (Somehow) |
Somehow he seemed to change |
But that’s how it goes for cutting his clothes, yeah |
That’s how it goes, ooh |
Marionette, that’s what you get |
Ooh, Marionette, that’s what you get |
Marionette, that’s what you get |
Marionette, that’s what you get |
Marionette, that’s what you get |
