Puppet

Let′s make a girl
To run the world
She’ll sing on stage
With graceful rage
Put her on a tour bus then teach her how to yell thank you, New York
Thank you, New York
Then put her on a TV
Have her selling pills, the skinny cure
They told me I′m the one

Take my body, take all the air I breathe
Can’t help myself but be, a player on the team
A lion you want, but only in a cage
Can’t help myself but be, a puppet on your stage

What kind of hair?
What kind of stare?
Should she be nice?
Or cold as ice
Build me like a barbie, then take me to a lobby
In New York, hello New York
The 42nd floor I′m gonna be the perfect star
They′re sure, it’s better if you′re dumb

Take my body, take all the air I breathe
Can’t help myself but be, a player on the team
A lion you want, but only in a cage
Can′t help myself but be, a puppet on your stage

Take the things you want and burn the rest
What do I know, I’m a pretty mess
Move my mouth and swing me with a string
Dancing, smiling, laughing, while I sing

Will you save me?
′Cause I’m breakin’
Will you save me?
′Cause I′m breakin’, I′m breakin’, I′m breakin’

Take my body, take all the air I breathe
Can′t help myself but be, a player on the team
A lion you want, but only in a cage
Can’t help myself but be, a puppet on your stage
outro
Take the things you want and burn the rest
What do I know, I’m a pretty mess
Move my mouth and swing me with a string
Dancing, smiling, laughing, while I sing
