Raylee Forest - Puppetry Lyrics

A smile, a wink, an invisible string
Move my hands up and down
Every scene is designed
When to please
What to speak
Follow the script line by line is all I need
Stand up
Sit down
Now move your hips
And turn around
Put me on the stage and the show begins
The more I resist, the tighter the string
Look at all these people they are laughing and clapping
Do they really mean it
Though some may gnash their teeth, grind their jaws
Even try to cut themselves free
They are getting tangled up
Something unspoken, is binding all of us
Stand up
Sit down
Now move your hips
And turn around
Put us on the stage and the show begins
The more we resist, the tighter the strings
Look at all these people, they are laughing and clapping
Do they really mean it
Do they really mean it
What a marvelous show
Everyone applauds
They are screaming 'Bravo'
A flawless façade
They have their own scripts
To follow, to fit in
Not playing by the book
Amused and ashamed
Put us on the stage and the show begins
The more we resist, the tighter the strings
Look at all these people, they are laughing and clapping
We are all here for the show
We are all here for the show
