INTRO LAm DO SOL (x5)
VERSE 1:
LAm DO SOL
The marionette has your number
LAm DO SOL
It pullin your arms and legs till you can't stand on your own
LAm DO SOL
Dragging your conscience on the stage and you heart gets rearranged
LAm DO SOL
And you cannot tell your mentor from your maker
LAm DO SOL
Look at the crowds bleeding with laughter
LAm DO SOL
Over the way you entertain at beckon call
LAm DO SOL
They don't see behind the lights or the painted background
LAm DO SOL
They just like to see you fall
CHORUS
DO LAm DO SOL
But you don't really mind
DO LAm DO SOL
Cause you're just wasting time
DO LAm DO SOL
You can't feel anything
DO LAm DO SOL
Just a boy on a string
VERSE 2:
LAm DO SOL
I feel a sadness like Gapetto
LAm DO SOL
Watching the life that he created run away,
LAm DO SOL
Seeing the puppeteer's intrusion and holding the remains
LAm DO SOL
Of puppets that had rotted away
LAm DO SOL
One day the curtain will not open
LAm DO SOL
And all of the crowds will go away
LAm DO SOL
Someday those strings will choke you
LAm DO SOL
But until that day
CHORUS
