lyrics

Translucent strings connect from a paddle to my hands and feet
Make me kick and flail and wave for whomever is controlling me
Made of wood in cloth and paint, I'm surely not what you would call a creature
My emotions are controlled by a primitive collection of mechanical features

Make me dance, make me blink, and I'll convey what you dare to think
Just move my lips and let the words flow out of your mouth

Built well and passed down from master to clown for centuries now
Land air or sea is how I got shipped abroad in my coffin

Make me dance. make me sing as I pirouette for the daughter of a king
Just watch your lips or he'll have both of our filthy tongues out

We're suspended in time
Me from you, you from them, rod to string, string to limb
They make you dance, they make you cry, they pull your strings like you pull mine
Just move my lips and let the words flow out of your mouth

Translucent veins carry your blood to your hands and feet
I see a fire in the universe of your eyes when you're suspicious of me
Your thoughts are now words on the wind, and the wind is a creature
Your emotions are controlled by a primitive set of biological features

You're in a trance, I see you blink, your eyes convey what I dare to think
And then I move my lips and watch the words flow out of your mouth

Translucent strings connect from a paddle to my hands and feet
Translucent veins carry your blood to your hands and feet
