Wind-Up Toys Songtext
von The Electric Prunes

See them walking
Keys are turning ′round in a circle
Feet don't touch the ground
They are coming from tomorrow
Bringing gladness and some sorrow home

Plastic faces cannot hide their tears
Though they′re ageless, moments are their years
Walking faster to disaster
Children follow, beat the hollow drum


We're just the wind-up toys
For wind-up girls and wind-up boys
In a wind-up world that knows we are not real

In a box now you are put away
You won't wind up till another day
Walking faster, you′re the master
Children follow, beat the hollow drum
We′re just the wind-up toys
For wind-up girls and wind-up boys
In a wind-up world that knows we are not real, we are not real
