The Magnetic Fields - When She Plays the Toy Piano

Текст песни

When she plays the toy piano
Woodland animals come round
Woodland birds sit on her shoulder
Wonderin' how she makes that sound
When she plays the toy piano
With her
She’s a wonder, we all love her
But it doesn’t pay the bills
She should sell that toy piano
Move to town, and get a job
Buy a studio apartment
Settle down and marry Bob
When one plays the toy piano
It drowns out the slithering time
But it’s oozing up the stairs now
And she hasn’t got a dime
When she plays the toy piano
She is ransoming her youth
Like a
In an isolation booth
When she plays the toy piano
When she makes her so-called art
She defiles her poppa’s tombstone
She is breaking momma’s heart
She is breaking, breaking, breaking momma’s heart
She is breaking, breaking, breaking momma’s heart
She is breaking, breaking, breaking momma’s heart
She is breaking, breaking, breaking momma’s heart
