When She Plays the Toy Piano

Lyrics
When she plays the toy piano Woodland animals come round Little birds sit on her shoulder Wondering how she makes that sound When she plays the toy piano With her arabesques and trills 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 ketamine addict In an isolation booth When she plays the toy piano When she makes her so-called art She defiles her papa’s tombstone She is breaking mama’s heart She is breaking, breaking, breaking mama’s heart She is breaking, breaking, breaking mama’s heart She is breaking, breaking, breaking mama’s heart She is breaking, breaking, breaking mama’s heart
