[Violin]
[Emotional woman]
String me... string me... string me up...

[Tempo shift]
[Verse 1]
[Dramatic Rap man]
I just don't get it... I know if I don't ask questions, then I'll regret it... or even worse, I'll shut up shop, and just forget it... if it's broken, then shut it down and just reset it...
[Pensive Man]
Yeah... I've thought for so long... about all that went wrong... I just need a place to belong... I believed I was strong... or maybe... I was just wrong all along...

[Bridge]
[Emotional woman]
String me... string me... string me up...

[Dramatic tempo shift]
[Chorus]
[Emotional woman]
So am I better off as a Marionette...
I'll groove to tunes from your clarenet...
I'm just a dancer on a stage...
Pull my strings, then lock me in a cage...

[Verse 2]
[Rap man]
Am I blind... or confined... I don't even know what I'm trying to find... I'm not unkind... but my reality remains undefined... I dont know where I'm aligned... I'm precariously entwined... I feel like a puppet that was designed...
[Aggressive rap man]
To be perfectly lined... ridiculed and maligned... I'm refined... and ready to be streamlined...

[Bridge]
[Emotional woman]
String me... string me... string me up...

[Dramatic tempo shift]
[Chorus]
[Emotional woman]
So am I better off as a Marionette...
I'll groove to tunes from your clarenet...
I'm just a dancer on a stage...
Pull my strings, then lock me in a cage...

[Painful tempo shift]
[Bridge]
[Emotional woman]
String me...
[Aggressive man]
String me...
String me...!
Up...!
[Melodic woman]
Ahhhh hooooo ohhhhh! Oh wow hoooo!
String me up...
[Aggressive man]
String me up!
String!
Me!
Up!

[Heavy tempo shift]
[Chorus]
[Emotional woman]
So am I better off as a Marionette...
I'll groove to tunes from your clarenet...
I'm just a dancer on a stage...
Pull my strings, then lock me in a cage...
