| [00:14.85] |
I’m a wind-up toy in an up down world |
| [00:19.87] |
If you leave me all alone, I’ll make a mess for sure |
| [00:24.68] |
I’ve a heart of gold in a smallest size |
| [00:30.19] |
Leave me in the dark, you’ll never hear me cry |
| [00:36.75] |
More than an illustration |
| [00:41.06] |
Points of articulation |
| [00:45.02] |
I come to life on a brass spring |
| [00:49.43] |
I‘m such a wonderful plaything |
| [00:54.24] |
It’s a cruel cross that I have to bear |
| [00:59.06] |
If you come a little closer I’m going to pull your hair |
| [01:02.78] |
More than just a toy in a patch-blue suit |
| [01:07.59] |
Hold me in your arms I’m just a boy like you |
| [01:11.69] |
But your mama thought there was something wrong |
| [01:16.52] |
Didn’t want you sleeping with a boy too long |
| [01:20.25] |
It’s a serious thing in a grown-up world |
| [01:25.94] |
Maybe you’d be better with a Barbie girl |
| [01:31.65] |
You knew that I had adored ya |
| [01:35.69] |
But you left me in Georgia |
| [01:40.01] |
Toys are not sentimental |
| [01:44.48] |
How could I be for rental? |
| [01:49.84] |
She’s the meanest hag that has ever been |
| [01:55.06] |
Pulled out my insides with an old safety pin |
| [01:59.25] |
I’m the sorest sight, now I feel like trash |
| [02:04.76] |
Clothes are made of rags and they don’t even match |
| [02:09.42] |
So she dressed me up as the man she loved |
| [02:14.57] |
Then threw me in a box when she had had enough |
| [02:18.56] |
Now the light of day I no longer see |
| [02:26.12] |
She stuck her voodoo pins where my eyes used to be |
| [02:32.42] |
Accidentally tragic |
| [02:36.98] |
Victim of her black magic |
| [02:41.45] |
I had a boy once who loved me |
| [02:47.00] |
Now he’s so afraid of me |
| [02:52.09] |
On a long lost day when you’re grey and old |
| [02:58.74] |
Would you be there remembering your old toy boy? |
| [03:03.94] |
When your own son's wondering what to be |
| [03:13.00] |
Tell him the story of a boy like me |
