marionette - jimmy webb lyrics

Loading...

marionette
your dress is all wet
did someone leave you outside in the rain
or is it the pain
that makes all the puppet tears
roll down your cheek
or does the roof leak?

marionette
how could you forget?
i told you your bright shining varnish would peel
and how does it feel?
with the bright rouge all faded
and the smile almost cracked
now that you’ve come back

almost too late
for my hands are much stiffer
than they were when first i painted your eyes

marionette
no you’re not finished yet
i’ll mend you and make you like new
paint your eyes blue
and make you as young
as i was myself
and there on the shelf
you’ll sit ’till the puppet man
comes around again
