Vanity of vanities
All is vanity
Stray nt further
Stay close, heed my call

Without the hands that keep you from decaying
My charms holding your world together
No one will love you like I do
Dare you go astray?
You revolve around me so dutifully
For when I smile it shines
When I cry, it pours
Such a small piece of my creation
Dance Marrionetta! Dance!

Vanity of vanities
All is vanity
Hold you down with foot and chain
This kind of beauty never fades

Vanity sweet vanity
