FULL LIVE VERSION OF TGHTGH:
Part 1:

And now, if you please, we’re about to begin
the scene is all set for our star to come in
Magic is hanging like smoke in the air
and all of a sudden you see her, she’s there!
The girl with the golden hair

THANK YOU FOR THE MUSIC

I'm nothing special
in fact I'm a bit of a bore
If I tell a joke
you've probably heard it before
But I have a talent
a wonderful thing
'cause everyone listens
when I start to sing
I'm so grateful and proud
all I want is to sing it out loud
So I say

Thank you for the music
the songs I'm singing
Thanks for all the joy
they're bringing
Who can live without it
I ask in all honesty
What would life be
without a song or a dance what are we
so I say thank you for the music
for giving it to me

Mother says I was a dancer
before I could walk
She says I began to sing
long before I could talk
And now I’m so grateful
to all of the guys
who bring the sweet memories
into our lives
I’m in love with them all
I mean Brian, Chuck, John and Paul

So I say
Thank you for the music
The songs I’m singing
Thanks for all the joy they’re bringing
I can’t live without it
I ask in all honesty
What would life be
Without a song or a dance what are we
So I say thank you for the music
For giving it to me

I've been so lucky
I am the girl with golden hair
I wanna sing it out to everybody
What a joy, what a life, what a chance

Thank you for the music
The songs I’m singing
Thanks for all the joy they’re bringing
I can’t live without it
I ask in all honesty
What would life be?
Without a song or a dance what are we?
So I say thank you for the music
It makes me happy

Thank you for the music
The songs I’m singing
Thanks for all the joy they’re bringing
I can’t live without it
I ask in all honesty
What would life be?
Without a song or a dance what are we?
So I say thank you for the music
For giving it to me

So I say thank you for the music
For giving it to me

Part 2:

By now, my dear listeners
you may think this girl is fully content in her own little world
But no, she’s ambitious
she wants to appear on TV, on records,
to launch a career

And yes, she’s successful
her dreams have come true
She’s getting an offer
accepting it too

She’s leaving her parents, her friends, her hometown
but now on departing
uncertainty is starting
she’s feeling a little bit down

I WONDER (DEPATURE)

This park and these houses
old streets I have walked
everything dear
will it be here
one day when I am returning?

My friends will get married
have children and homes
It sounds so nice
well-planned and wise
never expecting surprises

I wonder
it’s frightening
leaving now
is that the right thing?
I wonder
it scares me
but who the hell am I
if I don’t even try
I’m not a coward
Oh no, I’ll be strong
one chance in a lifetime
Yes, I will take it
it can’t go wrong

(Instrumental Break)

My friends and my family
this dull little town
buses I’ve missed
boys that I’ve kissed
everything old and familiar

I wonder
it’s frightening
leaving now
is that the right thing?
I wonder
it scares me
but who the hell am I
if I don’t even try
I’m not a coward
Oh no, I’ll be strong
one chance in a lifetime
Yes, I will take it
yes, I will take it
it can’t go wrong

Part 3:

Famous, successful
now she’s a star

She is a star
shining, shining

Fulfilling her contracts whatever they are
the contract’s her manager signed

It happens more often
she wakes up at night

Wakes up at night
screaming, screaming

Riddled by nightmares she turns on the light
frightened by what she was dreaming

Disillusioned and lonely
she feels like a clown

Feels like a clown
grinning, grinning

From concert to concert
from town to town
as though her whole world was spinning
She got what she wanted, and yet
she feels like a marionette!

I'M A MARIONETTE

You're so free
that's what everybody's telling me
Yet I feel I'm like an outward bound
pushed around refugee

Something's wrong
got a feeling that I don't belong
as if I have come from out of space
out of place, like King-Kong

I'm a marionette
just a marionette
pull the string
I'm a marionette
everybody's pet
just as long as I sing
I'm a marionette
see my pirouette
'round and 'round
I'm a marionette
I'm a marionette
just a silly old clown
I’m a marionette!

And I’m like a doll
like a puppet with no will at all
and somebody taught me how to talk
how to walk, how to fall

Can 't complain
I got no one but myself to blame
something's happening
I can't control
lost my hold, it's insane
Look this way
just a little smile
that's what they say
You'll look better on the photograph
if you laugh, that's OK!!

I'm a marionette
just a marionette
pull the string
I'm a marionette
everybody's pet
just as long as I sing
I'm a marionette
see my pirouette
'round and 'round
I'm a marionette
I'm a marionette
just a silly old clown
I’m a marionette!

I think something’s wrong
Got a feeling that I don’t belong
As if I had come from outer space
Out of place like King Kong!

I'm a marionette
just a marionette
pull the string
I'm a marionette
everybody's pet
just as long as I sing
I'm a marionette
see my pirouette
'round and 'round
I'm a marionette
I'm a marionette
just a silly old clown
I’m a marionette!
