Just A Toy Lyrics & Video

Barenaked Ladies See albums and popular songs

Words & Music by Steven Page & Ed Robertson

Look at my mouth, a thin painted line

Look at my limbs, bent up and bundled in twine

Forever, ever mine

Form of a tree, shape of a child

I wish I could cry, stuck in a permanent smile

Forever, ever mine

Chorus:

I know you must have loved me sometime

But now I'm just a toy

I know you must have loved me sometime

But now I'm just a toy

First there was me, nothing but time

Till he came along, you told me you'd always be mine

Forever, ever mine

Look at his face, somewhat like mine

But look at his nose, you can always be sure that he's lying

Forever, ever mine

Chorus

Who needs you

A boy-to-be who

Needs to be

Better than him, worthy of you

Given the chance that he had, I know what I'd do

Forever, ever mine

I call him liar, you call him son

if I could move, I'd set him on fire and I'd run forever

Naruto scrapped: This is the result of total boredom. Don't ask why me and my friend made it...we just did. There is some suggestive material, if you don't like it then sorry... that's just how the vid is. For those of you who don't mind then enjoy. You have been warned. (video from YouTube)
