Lyrics

Sunflower Bean — Puppet Strings

Who holds the puppet strings to my heart?

Who holds the puppet strings to my heart?

Who holds the puppet strings to my heart?

At the end of the day when it's getting dark

I gave 'em to you, now use it

I gave 'em to you, don't abuse it

Oh

I used to have things but I threw them away
