Barenaked Ladies Just a Toy song lyrics

(Page/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

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

'Til 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

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

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, ever mine

Forever

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
