The final curtain's drawn
I take my last bow today
They try to pull me off the stage
Tell me I’ve got no role left to play
They put me on a shelf
A puppet of days gone by
Watch the marionettes dance
I can't help but wonder why
And I hear the applause waning
And I see the audience leaving
And I feel my fame fading
The spotlight has died for me
They put me on a shelf
A puppet of days gone by
Watch the marionettes dance
I can't help but wonder why
My wood has grown so old
Even burning in the fire I feel so cold
