The Marvelous Toy - Peter,Paul & Mary[00:00:00]
When I was just a wee little lad,[00:00:14]
Full of health and joy,[00:00:18]
My father homeward came one night[00:00:20]
And gave to me a toy.[00:00:23]
A wonder to behold it was[00:00:26]
With many colors bright[00:00:29]
And the moment I laid eyes on it,[00:00:32]
It became my heart's delight.[00:00:35]
It went "Zip" when it moved[00:00:37]
And "Bop" when it stopped,[00:00:40]
And "Whirrr" when it stood still.[00:00:41]
I never knew just[00:00:44]
What it was[00:00:46]
And I guess I never will.[00:00:47]
The first time that I picked it up[00:00:51]
I had a big surprise[00:00:55]
Cause right on the bottom[00:00:57]
Were two big buttons[00:00:59]
That looked like big green eyes[00:01:00]
I first pushed one and then the other,[00:01:03]
Then I twisted it's lid[00:01:06]
And when I set it down again[00:01:09]
Here is what it did:[00:01:12]
It went "Zip" when it moved[00:01:15]
And "Bop" when it stopped,[00:01:17]
And "Whirrr" when it stood still.[00:01:18]
I never knew just[00:01:21]
What it was[00:01:23]
And I guess I never will.[00:01:24]
It first marched left[00:01:28]
And then marched right[00:01:30]
And then marched under a chair[00:01:32]
And when I looked[00:01:34]
Where it had gone[00:01:36]
It wasn't even there[00:01:37]
I started to cry[00:01:40]
But my daddy laughed[00:01:42]
'Cause he knew[00:01:43]
That I would find,[00:01:44]
When I turned around[00:01:46]
My marvelous toy[00:01:47]
Would be chugging from behind.[00:01:49]
It went "Zip" when it moved[00:01:52]
And "Bop" when it stopped,[00:01:54]
And "Whirrr" when it stood still.[00:01:55]
I never knew just[00:01:58]
What it was[00:02:00]
And I guess I never will.[00:02:01]
The years have gone[00:02:16]
By too quickly it seems,[00:02:18]
I have my own little boy[00:02:21]
And yesterday I gave to him[00:02:24]
My marvelous little toy:[00:02:28]
His eyes nearly popped[00:02:33]
Right out of his head[00:02:37]
And he gave a squeal of glee[00:02:38]
Neither one of us knows just[00:02:41]
What it is[00:02:43]
But he loves it just like me[00:02:44]
It still goes[00:02:47]
It went "Zip" when it moved[00:02:48]
And "Bop" when it stopped,[00:02:49]
And "Whirrr" when it stood still.[00:02:50]
I never knew just[00:02:53]
What it was[00:02:55]
And I guess I never will.[00:02:56]
