There's a roaring applause from the porcelain dolls The performance was flawless they say Just a single retort, from an old rocking horse who said "too back and forth for my taste" But the tragedy stands that the raggedy Ann it was written for didn't attend Did this marionette fall to pieces? You bet. But in ways that scotch tape cannot mend. Now I'll start a new score marbles strewn on the floor at my core a toy soldier I'd be With an etch a sketch shake I'd create a blank slate Make a solo that's soley for me. Even toys know that life is no story book and that some Lego bricks just won't latch Now this puppet will only write choir songs he promised her "no strings attached"
