Pull the String - Jonathan Coulton

Everybody knows you’re onto something

And they all want in

They don’t know about the bad news

You keep underneath your skin

And they think you’ve got it all figured out

But there’s one thing you never talk about

It’s a long time gone but it never went away

Pull the string

And this whole thing’s coming down

Just pull the string

Smile pretty, the camera loves you

That’s what they say

But there’s a part of you that wishes

They would all just go away

Cause there’s one small secret that’s bugging you

It would break their hearts if they only knew

There’s a world outside, you can feel it coming in

Pull the string

And this whole thing’s coming down

Just pull the string

Pull the string

Pull the string

Pull the string

Pull the

Call your lawyer, deny the rumors

But some lies are true

You can go there if you want to

When this ends is up to you

When your ten miles up and you’re coming down

You don’t feel a thing when you hit the ground

You just come apart and it’s like you never were

Pull the string

And this whole thing’s coming down

Just pull the string
