[Verse 1]
Am I an afternoon's pastime?
A thing on a string
To be thrown and retrieved
Like a phone call received
On somebody's birthday
To tease and delight
And then say goodnight
Then just say goodbye?
[Verse 2]
Am I a toy on a tray?
A soft piece of clay
Queen or clown for the day
Machine ballerina
Soldier of tin
Standing so loyal
While you sit so royal
Then I'm put away?
[Chorus]
For your approval
Perusal
And your possible
Refusal
I'm amusing
I'm a puppet for your play
Am I an afternoon's pastime?
A thing on a string
To be thrown and retrieved
Like a phone call received
On somebody's birthday
To tease and delight
And then say goodnight
Then just say goodbye?
[Verse 2]
Am I a toy on a tray?
A soft piece of clay
Queen or clown for the day
Machine ballerina
Soldier of tin
Standing so loyal
While you sit so royal
Then I'm put away?
[Chorus]
For your approval
Perusal
And your possible
Refusal
I'm amusing
I'm a puppet for your play
