[Verse 1]
If you said "jump", I’d leap
If you said "stay", I’d cling
If you said "go", I’d leave, but I wouldn’t want to
If you said "wait", I’d stop
In my tracks, I’m not
Good at giving up this tunnel vision
[Chorus]
I’m in the palm of your hands
Watch me dance just for you
You feel amused yet baby?
I’ll keep dancing while you wreck my plans
Fuck my head
Baby please, can’t you see it’s killing me?
Being the puppet on your string
[Verse 2]
If you said "walk", I’d run
Chase you like the sun
'Til I come undone, this isn't healthy
[Chorus]
I’m in the palm of your hands
Watch me dance just for you
You feel amused yet baby?
I’ll keep dancing while you wreck my plans
Fuck my head
Baby please, can’t you see it's killing me?
Being the puppet on your...
[Bridge]
Stringing me along on a tethered ropе
Tugging on me gently until I choke
Sitting cеntre seat, do you like the show
Do you like the show
I think you like the show
I'm building up the courage to walk away
Still living in the bend right before the break
You fucking puppeteer, won't you let me go
Will you end the show
[Chorus]
I’m in the palm of your hands
Watch me dance just for you
You feel amused yet baby?
I’ll keep dancing while you wreck my plans
Fuck my head
Baby please, can’t you see it's killing me?
Being the puppet on your string
