lyrics

STRINGS ATTACHED

under the lantern that is the moon
I'll make you dance to my desire
a silver shadow play till break of dawn
till I let go of the wires

from my hands the rope pays out
from my hands the cords pull
from my fingers new lines in your back
all my strings attached to you

oh my sweet marionette
take every step I command
oh my sweet marionette
every night over again

under the lantern that is the moon
I'll make you fiddle to fill my mouth
a silver shadow play for life or death
till muffled our music and sound

on my knees your ball room
at my feet a beggar's hat
for nickle to roll and copper to clatter
all my strings attached to you

oh my sweet marionette
I take every step and command
dance when I move
dance when I move
