Lyrics for 'The Marvelous Toy' by 'Peter Paul And Mary'
When I Was Just A Wee Little Lad,
Full Of Health And Joy,
My Father Homeward Came One Night
And Gave To Me A Toy.
A Wonder To Behold It Was
With Many Colors Bright
And The Moment I Laid Eyes On It,
It Became My Heart's Delight.
Refrain:
It Went "zip" When It Moved And "pop" When It Stopped,
"whirrr" When It Stood Still
I Never Knew Just What It Was And I Guess I Never Will.
The First Time That I Picked It Up
I Had A Big Surprise
Cause Right On The Bottom Were Two Big Buttons
That Looked Like Big Green Eyes
I First Pushed One And Then The Other,
Then I Twisted Its Lid
And When I Set It Down Again, Here Is What It Did:
(refrain)
It First Marched Left, And Then Marched Right
And Then Marched Under A Chair
And When I Looked Where It Had Gone
It Wasn't Even There
I Started To Cry, But My Daddy Laughed
'cause He Knew That I Would Find,
When I Turned Around My Marvelous Toy
Would Be Chugging From Behind.
(refrain)
The Years Have Gone By Too Quickly It Seems,
I Have My Own Little Boy
And Yesterday I Gave To Him
My Marvelous Little Toy:
His Eyes Nearly Popped Right Out Of His Head
And He Gave A Squeal Of Glee!
Neither One Of Us Knows Just What It Is
But He Loves It Just Like Me!
It Still Goes... (refrain)
