The Hives - Take Back The Toys

Take back the toys that you gave me
I never knew what to do with them anyway
I never knew how to break up the box
I'll stick to pebbles and boulders and blocks

So take back the toys that you threw my way
I never knew what to do with them anyway
I never knew how to break up the box
I guess the venom is served on the rocks

I been down on the beaten track
Just a holding on, holding out, holding back
Thinking not of what I got but of what I lack
I guess that's what we've been taught all along
It's the drop of poison in the lunch that I got for free
And I've been poppin' the pills placed in front of me
But I had enough, baby. I'm breaking free
I never knew why it would take me so long

Take back the toys or I'll destroy 'em
Do hear what I say? I say

Take back the toys that you gave me
I never knew what to do with them anyway
I never knew how to break up the box
I'll stick to pebbles and boulders and blocks

Open my eyes to what I despise
And in fourteen seconds or more
I tear it down

You see they give you toys just to distract
And then they break your mind
So they can break you back
Got you in so much debt you can't pay it back
And that's the way that it has been far too long

Take back the toys or I'll destroy 'em
Do hear what I say?

Take back the toys that you gave me
(Take back the toys)
I never knew what to do with them anyway
(Take back the toys)
I never knew how to break up the box
(Take back the toys)
I'll stick to pebbles and boulders and blocks
(Take back the toys)

So take back the toys that you threw my way
(Take back the toys)
I never knew what to do with them anyway
(Take back the toys)
I never knew how to break up the box
(Take back the toys)
I guess the venom is served on the rocks
