I've got no time for fairy stories
|
I'm not a little girl
|
So you can leave me all alone
|
And turn off the lights as well
|
If you were frightened
|
Then listen:
|
But I don't think you'd like it
|
Such a nice kid
|
|
Nobody's lookin' now
|
I throw my toys around
|
|
Somebody's bein' very bad
|
I wonder who it can be
|
Somebody's goin' to get in trouble
|
I know it isn't me
|
|
I'm just a little angel
|
But you don't know what I've done
|
When your back's turned
|
Nobody's lookin' now
|
I throw my toys around
|
|
Pick up those building blocks
|
Chop off the baby's locks
|
Swing dolly by the hair
|
Put down that teddy bear
|
Slam dunk that happy clown
|
I throw my toys around
|
|
I've got no time for bedtime stories
|
I'm not a little child
|
Everything makes me furious
|
And everything makes me wild
|
|
If you were frightened
|
Then whistle:
|
And they'll come runnin' to you
|
As you boo-hoo
|
|
Nobody's looking now
|
I throw my toys around
|
I throw my toys around
|
[repeat and fade]
