[Verse 1] Im a windup toy in a updown world If you leave me all alone Ill make a mess for sure Ive a heart of gold in the smallest size Leave me in the dark and never hear me cry [Chorus 1] More than an illustration Points of articulation Come to life on a brass spring Such a wonderful plaything [Verse 2] Its a cruel cross that I have to bear If you come a little close Im going to pull your hair More than just a toy in a patched blue suit Hold me in your arms Im just a boy like you [PreChorus 1] But your momma thought there was something wrong Didnt want you sleeping with a boy too long Its a serious thing in a grownup world Maybe youd be better with a Barbie girl [Chorus 2] You knew that I adored you But you left me in Georgia Toys are not sentimental How could I be for rental? [Verse 3] Shes the meanest hag that has ever been Pulled out my insides with an old safety pin Im the sorest sight, now I feel like trash Clothes are made of rags and they dont even match [PreChorus 2] So she dressed me up as the man she loved And threw me in a box when she had had enough Now the light of day I no longer see She stuck her voodoo pins where my eyes used to be [Chorus 3] Accidentally tragic Victim of her black magic Had a boy once who loved me Now hes so afraid of me [Verse 4] On a long, lost day when youre gray and old Youll be there remembering your old toy boy When your oldest sons wondering what to be Tell him the story of a boy like me Ohohohohohohoh Ohohohohohohoh Ohohohohohohoh
ohohohohohohoh, toy, boy, pin, sorest
