ABBA : I'm A Marionette (Live Australia'77) HQ

ABBA Live in Australia 1977


"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 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

Like a doll, like a puppet with no will at all
And somebody told me how to talk, how to walk, how to fall

Can't complain, I've got no-one but myself to blame
Something's happening I can't control, lost my hold, is it safe?

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

"Look this way, just a little smile", is what they say
"You look better on the photograph if you laugh, that's okay"

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

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

This song highligts the depth and variety that Abba were capable of. On stage chemistry was special. Much more than a mere pop group. They will never be surpassed.

"I'm A Marionette" sounds amazing LIVE. It's one of the best LIVE songs during the Australian Tour '77 ("ABBA The Movie"). An unforgettable show.

I'm A Marionette/Get On The Carousel - They girls wear blonde wigs, and we see the paradox: one woman with two personalities. In the mini-musical, The Girl With The Golden Hair, the girl receives local recognition, braves the world at large and finds it a rat race. She becomes robotic, impersonating herself. This is Agnetha's story. The prologue and the mime add to the surrealism.

I like the dance thing at 1.13 min !! Great vid!
