I am your doll, your marionette
Held captive on this island of insecurity
Forced compliance stirs up within me
An ugly anger
Which must be stifled.

When my parts don't work right
And the show doesn't go as planned
If the audience notices
I'll surely be banned
And made an example of,
A better man.

But I am your doll
I am the groveling one
Who sits and bemoans
This sick production.
