Comedy Or Tragedy (Putty In Your Hands)

(álbum: Hard To Be Friends - 1975)

I can't help but react to everything you do
You know that it's a fact my mood depends on you
I'm happy as a clown each time I see you laugh
But when you're feeling down I wear the other mask

Comedy or tragedy, to be or not to be
I'm just putty in your hands, what are your plans for me?
Comedy or tragedy, I'm stuck here in between
Just a puppet hanging loose, until you pull the string

Don't use my laughter and my tears if you don't care
You got to be sincere, that's only fair
So tell me if your love is make believe or real
I've earned the right to know exactly how you feel

Comedy or tragedy, to be or not to be
I'm just putty in your hands, what are your plans for me?
Comedy or tragedy, I'm stuck here in between
Just a puppet hanging loose, until you pull the string

I keep pouring all my soul in every role I play
But I know I'll never be an actor on the stage
To me it's not a game, I'm giving you my heart
If you don't feel the same, don't make me play the part

Comedy or tragedy, to be or not to be
I'm just putty in your hands, what are your plans for me?
Comedy or tragedy, I'm stuck here in between
Just a puppet hanging loose, until you pull the string

Comedy or tragedy, to be or not to be
I'm just putty in your hands, what are your plans for me?
Comedy or tragedy, I'm stuck here in between
Just a puppet hanging loose, until you pull the string
