VERSE 1:
The marionette has your number
LAm DO SOLIt pullin your arms and legs till you can't stand on your own
LAm DO SOLDragging your conscience on the stage and you heart gets rearranged
And you cannot tell your mentor from your maker
LAm DO SOLLook at the crowds bleeding with laughter
LAm DO SOLOver the way you entertain at beckon call
They don't see behind the lights or the painted background
LAm DO SOLThey just like to see you fall
CHORUS
But you don't really mind
DO LAm DO SOLCause you're just wasting time
DO LAm DO SOLYou can't feel anything
Just a boy on a string
VERSE 2:
LAm DO SOLI feel a sadness like Gapetto
Watching the life that he created run away,
LAm DO SOLSeeing the puppeteer's intrusion and holding the remains
LAm DO SOLOf puppets that had rotted away
One day the curtain will not open
LAm DO SOLAnd all of the crowds will go away
LAm DO SOLSomeday those strings will choke you
But until that day
