Elvis Costello I Throw My Toys Around Lyrics

I Throw My Toys Around Lyrics

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]
