AURORA - Puppet Lyrics






A dancing puppet doll made of wood
I bet he'd run away one day if he could choose to leave or stay
He's got a string attached to every bone
She's got him round her little finger so she'll never feel alone

Oh sometimes I wonder, did it go
But not the man, of course his soul
Dreaming of a wonderland
Wakes up and he's a man

Sometimes I wonder, did it go
But not the man, of course his soul
Dreaming of a wonderland
Wakes up and he's a man

Oh, taking control over another man's mind
Oh taking control over another man's mind
Oh, taking control over another man's mind
Oh taking control over his mind

The idea of leaving her, has struck his mind
When he sees her smile, he's hypnotized and he can't leave her behind
Looking to his left, there's the door
No need to try, tried it once before
And the bounds tied him beneath the floor

Sometimes I wonder, did it go
But not the man, of course his soul
Dreaming of a wonderland
Wakes up and he's a man

Sometimes I wonder, did it go
But not the man, of course his soul
Dreaming of a wonderland
Wakes up and he's a man

Oh, she's taking control over another man's mind
Oh taking control over another man's mind
Oh, taking control over another man's mind
Oh taking control over his mind

When they were out to buy her wedding gown
She wanted nothing but the dress over a hundred thousand pound
But what she wants, she gets, or she will cry
Hits the man with her umbrella
She'll continue till' he dies

Sometimes I wonder, did it go
But not the man, of course his soul
Dreaming of a wonderland
Wakes up and he's a man

Oh, taking control over another man's mind
Taking control of his mind

Oh, she's taking control over another man's mind
Oh taking control over another man's mind
Oh, taking control over another man's mind
Oh taking control over his mind

Oh, she's taking control over another man's mind
Oh taking control over another man's mind
Oh, taking control over another man's mind
Oh taking control over his mind

AURORA Puppet Comments
  1. G.... A....

    It's so sad that this song isn't that popular. It isn't on spotify. And yet it's one of my favourite songs of all time

    Those vocal vibratos... So talented even at 16. I love this song's whole vibe

  4. D.... T....

    This song is defiantly in my top 10 Aurora songs but I really have 21 favorites and forever growing, Love you, glad you are a part of our lives!

  5. M.... G....

    Cant belive it that this song started her hole career wow its sooo damnn good to i see why they wanted her to make more music

  6. J.... V....

    In my minds 👁 the past yields to the present so that the present can give birth to the past

  7. Y.... M....

    Did she bleach her hair and eyebrows?

  8. K.... K....

    This song soothes me, somehow, it reaches the spots where I am sad, exhausted and in pain. It is like this with many of her songs..

  9. R.... A....

    Beatiful song about toxic love and I'm really impressed that she has written such a deep song at just 15 years old. I'm a rock/metal dude but this young woman captivated my heart, her voice is like mana for my soul.

    R.... A....

    Mana for my soul... me too... beautiful told! I am a Rock Metal Dude too but her Voice god damnit awesome! I am listening to her since 2018 first song was Runaway so her voice will be Mana for my Soul forever!

  10. L.... H....

    I love her

  11. M.... S....

    Wait... it was made when she was 16!! can u believe that?! I love her!!!

    M.... S....

    Made when she was 16, her alone in a recording studio for 4 hours, doing the music and singing.

  12. s.... ....

    she used to look like THAT?

  13. j.... ....

    My best interpretation of the Lyrics,

    (since I could not find any official source)

    (verse 1)
     a dancing puppet doll made of wood
    I bet he'd run away one day if he could choose to leave or stay
    he's got a string attached to every bone
    she's got him round her little finger so she'll never feel alone

    (chorus)
    oh, (sometimes I wonder, ”where did it go?” not the man, of course, his soul
    dreaming about a wonderland where he wakes up and he's a man) x2
    oh, (taking control over another man's mind) x3
    taking control of his mind

    (verse 2)
    the idea of leaving her has struck his mind
    when he sees her smile, he's hypnotized and he can't leave her behind
    looking to his left, there's the door,
    no need to try, he's tried it once before
    but there are bonds tied underneath the floor

    (chorus)

    (verse 3)
    when they where out to buy her wedding gown
    she wants nothing but the dress over a hundred thousand pounds
    and what she wants, she gets or she will cry
    hits the man with her umbrella
    she'll continue til he dies
     
    (chorus)

    (outro)
    ahhh....ahhh...ooooww...ahhh
    oh (taking control over another man's mind) x3
    taking control of his mind

    j.... ....

    Better than other versions posted here. But I think it's more like:



    (Chorus)
    Sometimes I wonder - Did it go,
    Well not the man, of course his soul
    Dreaming about wonderland
    Wakes up and he's a man?


    (Verse 2)
    ...No need to try, he tried it once before
    And their bonds tied him beneath the floor

  14. A.... ....

    OMG The picture.

  15. G.... P....

    your eyes are the same as mine and you have my colors < ( o ) >
    I also noticed they have been using you.
    Are you aware?

  16. t.... o....

    Aurora is the strongest form of magick ever used against me in a good way! She knows the system of magick used naturally that allot of us try to work on and perfect.

  17. J.... R....

    I recall that this song was one of her first recording and she was Norway’s best kept secret at that time. Felt that she couldn’t go unnoticed any longer. Now she’s becoming a superstar and she fully deserves her success. Unique artist.

  18. d.... ....

    She is so beautiful in this picture .

  19. I.... v....

    I can't even believe you used to look like this. You changed so much and that's totally positive. I think you really discovered who you are. You are so beautiful, but you were also beautiful in 2016. Aurora, I love you. You are amazing and I'm crying over this song

  20. F.... X....

    Who else thought of The Puppet from FNAF even though she's a girl?

  21. V.... E....

    I feel like this song about an abusive relationship.

  22. a.... ....

    Strange picture of her ... before the bob 🙂

  23. J.... S....

    Plays through my heart and soul..

  24. K.... ....

    Well, in another Window Carnivore was Playing
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gErz-TJY2nA

  25. S.... K....

    I really love the timbre she has when singing this song! She doesn't have as much of this timbre nowadays, does she? But still fantastic!

  26. J.... R....

    This is one Aurora song I would love to see live at an acoustic show, this is seemingly the only version of it. It resonates! 👌

  27. A.... ....

    it is pics of AURORA?

    A.... ....

    adhiana mastur yes, a much younger AURORA

  28. S.... A....

    beauty with the voice of an angel

  29. r.... ....

    *This song talks about women that want to take control of men so they won't face their shadows alone, instead manipulate the man to do their job for them (like a puppet) and call it love. And the sad part is that this is happening A LOT WORLDWIDE. This is powerful if you listen and look around :'(* How sad. What a world we live in...

    r.... ....

    Other than that her angelic voice is everything!

  30. E.... ....

    this is one of her greatest songs and yet so underrated

    E.... ....

    EndsNear 💓💓😪😪

  31. C.... D....

    She was only 16. Sweet

  32. C.... K....

    Here her voice sometimes sounds completely different 😍 I love her, she has this magic fairy vibe 💚

  33. p.... ....

    That smile.

    p.... ....

    parriseric
    Adorable 😍😍😭😭💓💓

  34. A.... A....

    I'm your puppet and I love it
    not yet but I will be strung so I can pull on you too.
    Tied to the pinkie and that is a promise; shows no, but know that I will show you promise, I will.
    I will bring you closer singing that feeling that has met what I felt once! Is it love I thought it could only ever be lust


    I hate the realm of the flesh threshold passes through when I look into her eyes' rhymes with


    Lie to lie with lies with a hint is all I need to do it


    I've been sleeping avoiding my calling it is alarming how I overslept over every ring the alarm is ringing
    but wonderland is so tantalizing beating me down with an umbrella won't bring death to my tears it won't change a thing


    that happy ever after costing a wife, a life with someone I could never trust since I do not trust my self with someone so precious


    wed's no bread over a hundred thousand pounds weighing closer to nill when she distracts and I act out the door ; a few pounds is all it took to carry the grooms and bridal dress out the door. A Cop hit me with his baton as she sang this song.


    WOKE UP THE WAKE WAVES AN OSCULATING NEVER ENDING RIFT hit it with that rift slip slope tie a knot only if it is to the pinkie.


    I'll never go for the door that is for shore heave ho I row with that smile on mynde; Norway is home.


    woke up the wake waves an osculating never-ending rift


    take control but strings work like this
    strapped to the wrist but what happened to the promises I made to myself: NEVER FALL only SPRING BIRDS FIND LOVE.


    in the mist strings hide lies its not a puppets game it is one and the same sharing the frame lame to those who picture a lonely nature


    its not a name but what you do with it! I hate the fame isolating our frames into two different... move me, movie... maybe eventually
    you'll find that I'm waiting for the trigger she shot me dead already the conquerer has conquered mine. Take my spine, take my mind...


    poetry is my bullet
    my dealer sold me cupid's arrow
    gun's no fun unless the nine lines a rhyme that pulls on those strings cuts them to have that face time
    have my spine, have my mind, I pledge every rhyme to the conquerer
    I'v been dying for...


    dye, dye, dye: red, purple, silver i'd change my color
    pink i think black ink does her justice


    no need to take control the fool born on the first of the fourth is on earth and that's no prank its my life dedicated to a rhyme: wife.


    I will see you eventually fame is war and I hide in the forest swift with a trick I will show you that you will want to be mine

    A.... A....

    I call it I'm not your puppet with a high pitch lie

  35. A.... ....

  50. P.... A....

    Minha anja maravigolds

  51. D.... H....

    the song structure/ writting is so advanced for her age at the time. this is a true artist.

  52. L.... E....

    she looks so normal

    L.... E....

    Laura Xiaomella LOL, ikr 😉🦋✨

  53. E.... x....

    I thought her white hair was real... but just another fake girl :(
    I really was in love, what a shame

    E.... x....

    But still, who is'nt a little bit "fake" these days.... she's still an amazing artist. A shame if looks are more important than the amazing music she makes.

    E.... x....

    @kbakk1
    I as a child had too snow white hair but when you get older they get darker just like her clearly got darker (as you can see in this picture) and now her hair is bleached. Which is fine with me, it's just that when I saw her for the first time and she was wearing no make up and just beautiful snow white hair I really was amazed by her beauty.
    I don't care about her looks in general, I just was upset that me being amazed was about something that isn't even real. Anyone can have bleached white hair but only rarely people actually can have true white hair, which is very different.
    I just got upset about being "tricked" to think she had actually white hair. But at the end it doesn't matter lol, I enjoy her music and she is one of the most passioned artists, she is great either way.

    Just got upset about believing something that wasn't true :D usually when people have bleached white hair you can tell it is fake so easily but it suited her so well I really thought it was real lol, my bad.

    E.... x....

    👍🙂

    E.... x....

    @Elisium x It is not actually bleached, she just uses purple shampoo in her fair Nordic blond hair and that is enough to make it white.

    E.... x....

    Hair colours ... you’re freeked out by her hair ??? I digress, this is amazing 🙂🦋✨

  54. A.... A....

    We need Aurora to upload this on Spotify.

  64. L.... ....

    1 Million! 💙

  65. P.... S....

    This song have some Amy Winehouse vibe and i don't even listen to her music. Am i wrong?

  66. M.... P....

    *"Los mexicanos estamos esperando tus conciertos en MÉXICO"*

  67. N.... U....

    Still think she is gorgeous

  68. C.... G....

    So interesting to hear this. Very good song, but you could tell her confidence was not there yet. As I said, it is still very good but is no comparison to what she has become. Sometimes it just takes a little confidence to change everything. To think we were just a conversation away between mother and daughter from AURORA not sharing her gift to us. Just a few words from her mother changed the history of music. I know, I know...it sounds overly dramatic, but this is pretty much the truth. There is an important lesson to learn from this. I mean, how many great musicians, painters, or any kind of artist in general just never had that one person who pushed them to share their gift to the world? Very strange when you sit back and think about it. What have we missed because of a conversation that has gone differently?

    C.... G....

    Thank you! :')

    C.... G....

    But I guess this "lack" (not lack as a bad thing tho) of confidence and "shyness" is kinda interesting with this song. It made it a little more intimate like she was the puppet of the song seeing what could go different but with no strength to do so. I guess it was not on purpose but still fits the song so well lol

  69. e.... ....

    pre chorus sounded like silhouette:O

  70. d.... o....

    I can from TikTok , because I loved one of Aurora’s songs, Runaway, I listened to it soo many times and it was stuck in my head, then today , I went exploring and looked at her other songs two minutes later I was on the 5th song on her playlist I almost fell asleep to it...I LOVE Ur songs . Keep up the amazing work!

  77. L.... M....

    It's amazing to see how my sentimentality often misunderstood by some, was to meet words and rhythms, it's all so intense, I feel very good to hear and try to seek part of what would be an essence, Aurora you demonstrate your feelings in a very way expressive, and this makes me very happy, happy to know that there are beings as sentimental's as.

  78. K.... C....

    IM SO IN LOVE WITH THIS SONG SHSBSBSB

  79. Y.... N....

    Does she have cancer or tumor ? Because tonight I saw in the dream that she dies like 2019 or 2022 I really don't want anything to happen to her . Every beautiful thing comes to an end quicker than the ugly . And right now she's one of THE MOST BEAUTIFUL thing that exists

    Y.... N....

    that with the beautiful thing is true, you can kill a happy person's happiness way quicker than the sadness of a sad person.........
    But Dreams don't have to happen.

    Y.... N....

    it’s just a dream, don’t fret

  80. J.... B....

    Amazing not just that she could write a song like this so young, but that she could do it in another language.

  81. N.... S....

    Why this song is aren't in Spotify

  82. B.... ....

    She looks so different here. Is that even her?

  83. b.... b....

    Who else thinks the Aurora in the thumbnail looks like Indiana Evans?

  84. M.... R....

    I think this song must be a family heirloom in the Aksnes household and rightly so. It’s as good as any of Aurora’s later work and the picture it paints of this poor trapped individual is perfect “bombs hide underneath the floor” says it all.

  85. s.... n....

    2018 🇧🇷

  86. S.... J....

    She's perfect in every way

  87. C.... U....

    I'm so proud of her

    I love his music!!!!💙

  89. G.... L....

    So poetic and pure.
