Marionette - The Marvelettes

He had a hold on you

He was your puppeteer (Puppeteer)

You did everything he wanted you to

Now he’s not here, and you’re lost by fear

'Cause now he’s not here

Marionette, that’s what you get

Marionette, that’s what you get

Because you let him pull the strings

That made you do the things that you’re so sorry for

'Cause now he don’t love you no more

(Love you no more)

Woo, don’t you know he had complete control?

(Complete control)

Ah, you could do nothing alone (Complete control)

Now without him you ain’t got no soul

I tell you, you’re on your own

Yeah, now that he’s gone

Ooh, you’re on your own, woo

Marionette, that’s what you get

Ooh, Marionette, that’s what you get

Because you let him pull the strings

That made you do the things that you’re so sorry for

'Cause now he don’t love you no more

Don’t love you no more

For you he was no good, no no

He thought your heart was made of wood

Yeah, yeah (Made of wood, made of wood)

He made you act so strange (Foolish)

Foolish and uncomposed, oh yeah (Somehow)

Somehow he seemed to change

But that’s how it goes for cutting his clothes, yeah

That’s how it goes, ooh

Marionette, that’s what you get

Ooh, Marionette, that’s what you get

Marionette, that’s what you get

Marionette, that’s what you get

Marionette, that’s what you get
