Lyrics
0:00Tangled Up Puppet (糾結的木偶) (LP版) - Harry Chapin
0:08I'm a tangled up puppet
0:11Spinning round in knots
0:14And the more I see what I used to be
0:18The less of you I've got
0:22There was a time
0:23That you curled up in my lap; like a child
0:29You'd cling to me smiling
0:32Yours eyes wide and wild
0:35Now you slip through my arms
0:38Wave a passing hello
0:42Twist away and toss a kiss
0:45Laughing as you go
0:49You used to say
0:50"Read me a story and sing me songs of love"
0:56For you were Princess Paradise like your wings of a dove
1:02Now I chase you
1:04And tease you trying to remake you my own
1:09But you just turn away and say "please leave me alone "
1:20And I'm a tangled up puppet
1:23All hanging in your strings
1:26I'm a butterfly in a spider's web
1:30Fluttering my wings
1:33And the more that I keep dancing
1:36And spinning round in knots
1:39The more I see what I used to be
1:43And the less of you I've got
1:47You are a drawer full of make up
1:50And rinses and things
1:54You keep changing your moods
1:57Like your earrings and rings
2:00But tonight while we played tag
2:03For five minutes in the yard
2:07Just for a moment I caught you off guard
2:17And I'm a tangled up puppet
2:21All hanging in your strings
2:24I'm a butterfly in a spider's web
2:28Fluttering my wings
2:31And the more that I keep dancing
2:34And spinning round in knots
2:37The more I see what I used to be
2:40And the less of you I've got
2:45But now you write your secret poems
2:48In a room just for your dreams
2:52You don't find time to talk to me
2:55About the things you mean
3:03What I mean is
3:06I have watched you take shape from a jumble of parts
3:13And find the grace and form of a fine work of art
3:19Hey you my brand new woman
3:23Newly come into your own
3:27Don't you know that you don't need to grow up all alone
