The Hives - Take Back the Toys lyrics

[The Hives - Take Back the Toys lyrics]

Take back the toys that you've given me
I never knew what to do with them anyway
I never knew how to break out the box
I sink the 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 out the box
I guess the tables were served on the rocks

I've been down on the beaten track
Just holding on, holding up, holding back
Given not what I've got but of what I lack
I guess that's what we've
Been taught all along
It's the time for poison in the
Locks that I got for free
And I've been pumping the pills
Placed in front of me
But I've had enough baby I'm breaking free
I never knew why it would take me so long



Take back the toys they are destroying me
Hear what I say? I say
Take back the toys that you've given me
I never knew what to do with them anyway
I never knew how to break out the box
I sink the 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 your back
Got you in so much that you can't pay it back
And that's the way that it has
Been for far too long

Take back the toys they are destroying me
Hear what I say?
Take back the toys that you've given me
I never knew what to do with them anyway
I never knew how to break out the box
I sink the pebbles and boulders and blocks

So take back the toys that you've given me
I never knew what to do with them anyway
I never knew how to break out the box
I guess the tables served on the rocks
