just a toy þarký sözü

words & music by steven page & ed 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

chorus:
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
till 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

chorus

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

chorus
