"You\'re so free", that\'s what everybody\'s telling me
Yet I feel I\'m like an outward-bound, pushed around, refugee
Something\'s wrong, got a feeling that I don\'t belong
As if I had come from outer space, out of place, like King Kong
I\'m a marionette, just a marionette, pull the string
I\'m a marionette, everybody\'s pet, just as long as I sing
I\'m a marionette, see my pirouette, round and round
I\'m a marionette, I\'m a marionette, just a silly old clown
Like a doll, like a puppet with no will at all
And somebody told me how to talk, how to walk, how to fall
Can\'t complain, I\'ve got no-one but myself to blame
Something\'s happening I can\'t control, lost my hold, is it safe?
I\'m a marionette, just a marionette, pull the string
I\'m a marionette, everybody\'s pet, just as long as I sing
I\'m a marionette, see my pirouette, round and round
I\'m a marionette, I\'m a marionette, just a silly old clown
"Look this way, just a little smile", is what they say
"You look better on the photograph if you laugh, that\'s okay"
I\'m a marionette, just a marionette, pull the string
I\'m a marionette, everybody\'s pet, just as long as I sing
I\'m a marionette, see my pirouette, round and round
I\'m a marionette, I\'m a marionette, just a silly old clown
"You\'re so free", that\'s what everybody\'s telling me
Yet I feel I\'m like an outward-bound, pushed around, refugee
