Songtext:
After the moon comes up, all of the toys behind closed doors
open their eyes and move their squeaky joints across the floor
Rocking horses run, tinker toys assembling,
twisting mobile stars, dancing dolls and spinning cars
Stop, will you stop? Will you stop and speak to me?
Wake, I know you're awake Move your mouth and speak to me
I'm not the kind who will take it for granted,
No, I'm not the kind who will take it for granted
How I would like to know all the toy soldiers in a row,
marching to and fro, all the tin soldiers in a row
Tiny painted mouths, how I wish you'd utter now,
words of nursery rhyme, tongue and teeth all click in time
Stop, will you stop? Will you stop and speak to me?
Wake, I know you're awake Move your mouth and speak to me
I'm not the kind who will take you for granted,
No, I'm not the kind who will take you for granted
open their eyes and move their squeaky joints across the floor
Rocking horses run, tinker toys assembling,
twisting mobile stars, dancing dolls and spinning cars
Stop, will you stop? Will you stop and speak to me?
Wake, I know you're awake Move your mouth and speak to me
I'm not the kind who will take it for granted,
No, I'm not the kind who will take it for granted
How I would like to know all the toy soldiers in a row,
marching to and fro, all the tin soldiers in a row
Tiny painted mouths, how I wish you'd utter now,
words of nursery rhyme, tongue and teeth all click in time
Stop, will you stop? Will you stop and speak to me?
Wake, I know you're awake Move your mouth and speak to me
I'm not the kind who will take you for granted,
No, I'm not the kind who will take you for granted
