My painted face is chipped and chacked
My mind seems to fade to fast -
Clutching straws - sinking slow
Nothing less - nothing less.
A puppets motion is controlled by
A Sfringr bY a stranger I'ver never met.
A nod of the head and a pull of the thread
I can't say no - I can't say no.
When a child throws out a toy
When I was new you wanted me
Now I'm old you no longer see.
When a child throws out a toy
Spiteful girl - hateful boy
When a child throws out a toy.
AII dressed up and nowhere to go
Or the music box that never stops.
I'll dance for you if you want me to
Move in time - move in time.
A wooden head and a broken heart
Used abused and torn apart
I gave you my best and you gave me the rest
There's time to die - time to die.
When a child throws out a toy
. . .
