Mika - Toy Boy

Versuri Mika - Toy Boy

[VERSE 1:]
I`m a wind up toy 
In an 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 
You never hear me cry 

[PRE-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 
I`m going to pull your hair 

More than just a toy 
In a patched blue suit 
When you 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 

[PRE-CHORUS 2:]
You knew that 
I adored ya 
But you left me in Georgia 
Toys are not sentimental; 
How could i be for rental? 

[VERSE 3:]
She`s the meanest hag 
That has ever been 
Pulled out my insides 
With an old safety pin 

I`m the sorest sight 
Now I feel like trash 
Clothes are made of rags 
And they don`t even match 

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 

[PRE-CHORUS 3:]
Accidentally tragic 
Victim of her black magic 
Had a boy once who loved me 
Now he`s so afraid of me 

[VERSE 4:]
On a long lost day 
When you`re grey and old 
You`ll be there remembering 
Your old toy boy 

When your only son`s 
Wondering what to be 
Tell him the story of 
A boy like me 
Oooooooo 
Oooooooo
