Here comes your drunken marionette
|
Dragging his mess of threads
|
There at the bar pulling smoke to his lungs
|
He says who will ignore me when you're gone?
|
|
Now come on lift me up
|
I wanna dance by your tin cup
|
Tower of beauty with a split in your tongue
|
Who will ignore me when you're gone?
|
He says who will ignore me when you're gone?
|
|
Here he cooooooomes
|
Here he cooooooomes
|
Be still the wooden heart
|
That wouldn't ever part
|
With the drunken marionette
|
|
Been mainlining bad thoughts
|
Been drinking things I wish I'd not
|
Intoxicated with sad songs
|
Who will forgive you when I'm gone?
|
|
They sing auld lang syne
|
I've got mutiny on my mind
|
A guilty conscience means at least you've got one
|
Who will forgive you when I'm gone?
|
He says who will forgive you when I'm gone?
|
|
Here he comes
|
Here he comes
|
Be still the wooden heart
|
Who wouldn't ever part
|
Waiting on a spark
|
That hasn't happened yet
|
For the drunken marionette
|
|
Carry on
|
Turn the lights on when you go
|
In the hours left
|
I hope you feel the things that i know I won't
|
|
What you give is what you get
|
I get so worried bout your debts
|
Who carries evil out evil will come
|
Who will defend you when I'm gone?
|
He says who will defend you when I'm gone?
|
|
Here he comes
|
Here he comes
|
Be still the wooden heart
|
Wouldn't ever part
|
Waiting on a spark
|
That hasn't happened yet
|
|
Here he comes
|
Here he comes
|
Be still the wooden heart
|
That wouldn't ever part
|
Waiting on a spark
|
That hasn't happened yet
|
For the drunken marionette
