A clockwork toy
A broken boy
Goes through the flaming hoop

A trapeze artist
Suspended in the air


And they're going, they're leaving the game slowly
Let the clock start turning in earnest
They're going, they're leaving the game slowly

Let clockwork toys fufill their potential

An elephant

Will move his trunk
If you'd only wind him up
For his audience

Who can't get up to it
Oh no no


Well now they're going, they're leaving the game slowly
Let the clock start turning in earnest
They're going, they're leaving the game slowly

Let clockwork toys fufill their potential

How many years

Will cure, cure the fears?
Of the frozen? worker


And they're going, they're leaving the game slowly
Let the clock start turning in earnest
They're going, they're leaving the game slowly

Let clockwork toys fufill their potential

This drummer boy plays with rattlin' teeth

The carousel spins for it's tiny kids
A ballet dancer entertains a clown
And the stilt walker who won't sit down

With the other clockwork toys
