“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 sp-ce, 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
