My painted face
Is chipped and cracked
My mind seems
To fade too fast
Clutching straws
Sinking slow
Nothing less, nothing less
A puppet's motions
Controlled by a string
By a stranger
I've never met
A nod of the head
And a pull of the thread
I can't say no, can't say no
When a child throws out a toy
When I was new you wanted me
Now I'm old you no longer see
When a child throws out a toy
Spiteful girl
Hateful boy
When a child throws out a toy
I'm all dressed up
And nowhere to go
On a music box
That never stops
I'll dance for you
If you want me to
Move in time, move in time
Is chipped and cracked
My mind seems
To fade too fast
Clutching straws
Sinking slow
Nothing less, nothing less
A puppet's motions
Controlled by a string
By a stranger
I've never met
A nod of the head
And a pull of the thread
I can't say no, can't say no
When a child throws out a toy
When I was new you wanted me
Now I'm old you no longer see
When a child throws out a toy
Spiteful girl
Hateful boy
When a child throws out a toy
I'm all dressed up
And nowhere to go
On a music box
That never stops
I'll dance for you
If you want me to
Move in time, move in time
