[Verse 1]

They’ll pull your strings

Just to change the things that you used to think

They’ll fake your smile

Gotta staple your cheeks so it lasts a while

They’ll turn you into something you're not

Just to thicken the plot 'cause you got something they want

They tell you that you're sick and diseased

Can’t you see what I mean?

They want you part of their team, look


[Refrain]

You can’t take control of me

No sense controlling me

You can’t take control of me

No sense controlling me

You can’t take control of me

No sense controlling me

You can’t take control of mе

No sense controlling me


[Chorus]

I’m not your puppеt

I’m screaming "Fuck it"

I kick the bucket, pump me full of pills

Sick to my stomach

I’m not your puppet

I’m screaming "Fuck it"

I kick the bucket, pump me full of pills

Sick to my stomach


[Interlude]

Come on!

Come play with us!

You’re no fun


[Verse 2]

Hush little, baby, don’t say a word

Mama's gunna buy you a mocking bird

And then we’ll stick a camera in its eye

So we can be there when you start to cry

We’ll feed you pills 'cause you're too damn sad

And if you don’t want them well that's too damn bad

Welcome to the world of the sick and diseased

Can’t you see what I mean?

They want you part of their team, look


[Refrain]

You can’t take control of me

No sense controlling me

You can’t take control of me

No sense controlling me

You can’t take control of me

No sense controlling me

You can’t take control of me

No sense controlling me


[Chorus]

I’m not your puppet

I’m screaming "Fuck it"

I kick the bucket, pump me full of pills

Sick to my stomach

I’m not your puppet

I’m screaming "Fuck it"

I kick the bucket, pump me full of pills

Sick to my stomach
