I'm not a puppet on a string
Let it please be him, oh dear God
It must be him but it's not him
Oh hello, hello, my dear God
I'll find somebody else someday
You'll never hurt me anymore
It's easy when you play it cool
It must be him , it must be him
It must be him, it must be him
I pick the pieces off the floor
And then I die, again I die
After a while I'm myself again
It must be him , it must be him
Play the field, have a lot of fun
Put my heart on the shelf again
That's when the phone rings and I jump
Who cares, let him stay away
That's when the phone rings
It must be him but it's not him
I tell myself, don't be a chump
And as I grab the phone, I pray
Oh hello, hello, my dear God
And once again I start to pray
Or I shall die, or I shall die
And then I die, that's when I die
Let it please be him, oh dear God
Or I shall die, or I shall die
Let it please be him, oh dear God
