Pull my strings
Make me smile
Make me sing
Make me run a mile.
I am your puppet.
Dearest mother, dearest father,
Can't you see?
I am simply a puppet
But in your eyes you just see me
Dearest friends
I am funny.
Can't you tell?
But, remember
You can't see my hell
Paint me a beauitful smile
To hide my tears
Carve a skinny body
To be pretty enough
Oh, is this me to real for you?
Tear off my jeans and give me dress
Wipe my dirtcovered face to apply makeup
Is this the daughter you want dearest mother,
Father?
Lock me in a box and give me books
I will do my work faithfully
Using my sap from my wooden arm as
Ink
The show is done
The act is over
Everyone is gone
I pull off my wooden smile
I pull off my silly dress
I lay my wooden body on the floor
But someone knocks on the door.
I do not get up.
I dare not move.
I force sap to clog my gears.
For I sense it
The Puppeteer
Is
Near...
