Marionette Music Lyrics

Mott The Hoople

No puppet, no liar, won't bend my lips to wire, no

Don't pressurize me so

Don't gamble, with my life or you won't live to do it twice

Oh, take some good advice from me and let the wires rock



All dressed in black so nobody sees you

Smile in the wings, tell me I please you

Call me a king and watch for the woodworm to choke me



And you're like a giraffe, the performance is poor

Watch the audience laugh as my head hits the floor

When I'm broken in half you still reach for the floor



Stop, I've had enough of this

The pantomime's reversed

I need, you feed

I greed, you bleed



Marionette, I ain't one yet

Teacher's pet, well, you'd better forget it

Marionette, I ain't one yet

Teacher's pet, go check your stocks and shares



And when the coffin comes

Make sure there's room for two

You lied, I led

I died, you're dead



Marionette, I ain't one yet

Teacher's pet, you'd better forget it

Marionette, I ain't one yet

Teacher's pet, go check your product



A traitor, deceiver, a groovy disbeliever I thought

A puppet was a thing cheap taught, no way

Creator, conceiver, romantic love receiver, caught



Who are you?

The nerve

I wanna get out, I wanna get out

I wanna get out, I wanna get out

I wanna get out



Oh, he wanna play chords to the chick on the street

He wanna play words to a world that don't speak

He wanna play people who play hide n' seek when they don't talk



He wanna play a riff to the man with the wires

He wanna play lead but his hand's getting tired

He just wanna play but don't know how to say



Stop, okay, the show's been fun

But my wood's begun to warp

They won, I'm done

New one, begun



Marionette, I did my best

Teacher's pet, it just couldn't last

Marionette, get me out of this mess

Teacher's little pet, it happened so fast



Marionette, now I need a rest

Teacher's pet, where's my sanity gone mother?

Marionette, I did my best

Teacher's little pet, I'm just like all the others



They gambled, with my life

And now I've lost my will to fight

Oh God these wires are so tight

I'm just a Marionette
