She says: Hey! Wait!
Listen now to what I've got to say
I don't think I want it this way
We become some poor
Excuse and love that's come undone
And how do we get so numb

I wanna be in your control
So unmerciful
You can twist me and turn just don't let me go

I wanna be your puppet on a string
Baby I'm not holding back
We can do anything
And even if I'm crazy is cause you make me this way
We're as close to love as we'll ever get
I wanna be your marionette, marionette, marionette
I wanna be your marionette, marionette, marionette

So let's play the charade
I'm helpless like a child lost in the dark
And I need you to light a spark
It's a game but the same
I need to feel that this is real somehow
So don't disconnect me now

I wanna be in your control
So unmerciful
You can twist me and turn just don't let me go

I wanna be your puppet on a string
Baby I'm not holding back
We can do anything
And even if I'm crazy is 'cause you make me this way
We're as close to love as we'll ever get
I wanna be your marionette, marionette, marionette
I wanna be your marionette, marionette, marionette

Laying head to head and toe to toe
And we're body to body
I feel you beside me

We're in this masquerade
A beautiful game or play
It's so powerful when you controlling me

I wanna be your puppet on a string
Baby I'm not holding back
We can do anything
And even if I'm crazy is 'cause you make me this way
We're as close to love as we'll ever get
I wanna be your marionette, marionette, marionette
I wanna be your marionette, marionette, marionette
I wanna be your marionette, marionette, marionette
I wanna be your marionette, marionette, marionette
