When She Plays the Toy Piano

Stephin Merritt

[Verse 1]
When she plays the toy piano
Woodland animals come round
Little birds sit on her shoulder
Wondering how she makes that sound

[Verse 2]
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

[Verse 3]
She should sell that toy piano
Move to town, and get a job
Buy a studio apartment
Settle down and marry Bob

[Verse 4]
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

[Verse 5]
When she plays the toy piano
She is ransoming her youth
Like a ketamine addict
In an isolation booth

[Verse 6]
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

[Outro]
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
