Toy Matinee - The Toy Matinee lyrics

What are we doing today? Some serious thoughts I could weigh A fish or a mountain to scale I'm a slow-burning man But always too faithful to choose With minor persuade, I'll join the parade instead And play with the toys in my mind gone away And laugh at the cheapness, the toy matinee The orchestra tunes to an A below The overture builds to a vertigo And everyone's holding their breath The show has begun The shepherd of pettiness winks The audience loves what he thinks Peanuts for all in the house We're so easy to please, please Pleas from the crowd to go on Waltzing away, a mindless array instead Take a slap in the face from the toys of the day While everyone watches the toy matinee And play with the toys in my mind gone away While everyone watches the toy matinee
