I'm A Marionette

"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 have 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 taught 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
