Marionette
Art Garfunkel
Marionette your dress is all wet Did someone leave you outside in the rain Or is it the pain That makes all the puppet tears roll down your cheek Or does the roof leak? Marionette how could you forget? I told you your bright shining varnish would peel How does it feel With the bright rouge all faded and the smile almost cracked Now that you've come back? Back to the toy shop by Brandenburg Gate I hope not too late 'Cause my hands are much stiffer Than they were when first I painted your eyes Marionette no you're not finished yet I'll mend you and make you like new Paint your eyes blue And make you as young as I was myself And there on the shelf... You'll sit 'til the Puppet Man Comes 'round again (3x) ...
