Lyrics
0:07I'm a wind-up toy in a up-down world
0:11If you leave me all alone I'll make a mess for sure
0:14I've a heart of gold in the smallest size
0:18Leave me in the dark and never hear me cry
0:23More than an illustration
0:26Points of articulation
0:30Come to life on a brass spring
0:34Such a wonderful plaything
0:37It's a cruel cross that I have to bear
0:42If you come a little close I'm going to pull your hair
0:45More than just a toy in a patched blue suit
0:50Hold me in your arms I'm just a boy like you
0:53But your momma thought there was something wrong
0:57Didn't want you sleeping with a boy too long
1:01It's a serious thing in a grown-up world
1:05Maybe you'd be better with a Barbie girl
1:09You knew that I adored you
1:13But you left me in Georgia
1:17Toys are not sentimental
1:21How could I be for rental?
1:25She's the meanest hag that has ever been
1:30Pulled out my insides with an old safety pin
1:33I'm the sorest sight now I feel like trash
1:37Clothes are made of rags and they don't even match
1:41So she dressed me up as the man she loved
1:44And threw me in a box when she had had enough
1:48Now the light of day I no longer see
1:52She stuck her voodoo pins where my eyes used to be
1:57Accidentally tragic
2:01Victim of her black magic
2:05Had a boy once who loved me
2:09Now he's so afraid of me
2:13On a long lost day when you're gray and old
2:17You'll be there remembering your old toy boy
2:21When your oldest son's wondering what to be
2:25Tell him the story of a boy like me
2:30Ohohohohohohoh
2:33Ohohohohohohoh
2:37Ohohohohohohoh
2:41Ohohohohohohoh
I'm a wind-up toy in a up-down world If you leave me all alone I'll make a mess for sure I've a heart of gold in the smallest size Leave me in the dark and never hear me cry More than an illustration Points of articulation Come to life on a brass spring Such a wonderful plaything It's a cruel cross that I have to bear If you come a little close I'm going to pull your hair More than just a toy in a patched blue suit Hold me in your arms I'm just a boy like you But your momma thought there was something wrong Didn't want you sleeping with a boy too long It's a serious thing in a grown-up world Maybe you'd be better with a Barbie girl You knew that I adored you But you left me in Georgia Toys are not sentimental How could I be for rental?
