Tangled Up Puppet

Advisory - the following lyrics contain explicit language:

I'm a tangled up puppet

Spinning round in knots

And the more I see what I used to be

The less of you I've gotThere was a time that you curled up

In my lap, like a child

You'd cling to me smiling

Your eyes wide and wildNow you slip through my arms

Wave a passing hello

Twist away and toss a kiss

Laughing as you goYou used to say, "Read me a story

And sing me songs of love"

For you were Princess Paradise

On the wings of a doveNow I chase you and tease you

Trying to remake you my own

But you just turn away

And say, "Please leave me alone"And I'm a tangled up puppet

All hanging in your strings

I'm a butterfly in a spider's web

Fluttering my wingsAnd the more that I keep dancing

And spinning round in knots

The more I see what I used to be

And the less of you I've gotYou are a drawer full of makeup

And rinses and things

You keep changing your moods

Like your earrings and ringsBut tonight while we played tag

For five minutes in the yard

Just for a moment

I caught you off guardAnd I'm a tangled up puppet

All hanging in your strings

I'm a butterfly in a spider's web

Fluttering my wingsAnd the more that I keep dancing

And spinning round in knots

The more I see what I used to be

And the less of you I've gotNow you write your secret poems

In a room just for your dreams

You don't find time to talk to me

About the things you meanWhat I mean is

I have watched you take shape

From a jumble of parts

And find the grace

And form of a fine work of artHey, you, my brand new woman

Newly come into your own

Don't you know that you don't need

To grow up all alone

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
