Текст Jake Miller – Puppet
Текст:
Verse 1:
Yeah, lately I feel like a puppet, being pulled in 50 million different places
Girlfriend’s on the phone, the other line I got my agent
Like hey Jake, got good news, we just booked another tour
What am I supposed to say?
Hey baby, how you doing? I missed you, oh, by the way I’m bout to leave again
I’m going on a fall tour
But I’ll be back before you know it, then I’m all yours
Listen, Jake, she’ll understand, this is more important
Oh, really? You wanna tell her that?
‘Cause if I ever did she’d probably kill me
Look I’m sorry, Jake but it’s done deal, you’re leaving Thursday
And you’ll be on the road during Christmas and your birthday
Great, my girl’s mad ’cause I ain’t there a lot
And now I gotta spend my birthday in the courtyard Marriott
Jake, I know you’re stressed, man, you’ve had a busy year
But this is what you signed up for, this is your career
This industry ain’t for the weak-hearted, Jake, I thought you knew
That you can’t pursue your dream and have a normal life, too
If you ain’t ready tell me now, I never said that it was easy
Otherwise I’ll be in my office, you know where to reach me
Hook:
Damn, I’m feeling like a puppet
A goddamn puppet
Being pulled in a million different ways
Man, I think I’m bout to break
I’m a puppet
A goddamn puppet
Sick of feeling like a puppet
All these voices in my ear
I’m a puppet
Verse 2:
Look, hang up with my agent, put my phone down on the table
Five seconds later get a call from my label
Like hey, Jake, how you doing? Tell me how’s the album coming?
We heard your last song and honestly we didn’t love it
We don’t think it’ll make the cut, could’ve written better verses
Deadline’s in a month and now we starting to get nervous
Stop getting so distracted, start picking up the pen
You need more time in the studio, and less time with your friends
‘Cause it’s crunch time, should be doing nothing but making music
We follow you on Instagram, see everything you doing
Yea we see you at the beach, at the gym, at the mall
To be honest, doesn’t seem like you’re working hard at all
How dare you say that I don’t even have time to take a shit
I’ve been working non-stop and I’ll be honest, I admit
Sometimes I need a break, this life can drive a man crazy
Especially when your label keeps calling saying you’re lazy
Listen, Jake, I know it’s hard
Sometimes it isn’t fun
But if this album tanks, well your career could be done
If you ain’t ready tell us now, never said that it was easy
Otherwise I’ll be in my office, you know where to reach me
Hook:
Damn, I’m feeling like a puppet
A goddamn puppet
Being pulled in a million different ways
Man, I think I’m bout to break
I’m a puppet
A goddamn puppet
Sick of feeling like a puppet
Sometimes I wanna disappear,
All these voices in my ear
I’m a puppet
