Toy Boy Lyrics - The Boy Who Knew Too Much - Mika

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 

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 ya 

But you left me in Georgia 

Toys are not sentimental 

How could I be for rental? 

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 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 

Accidentally tragic 

Victim of her black magic 

I had a boy once who loved me 

Now he's so afraid of me 

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
