The Toy Matinee |
| 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 |
