John Denver - Marvellous Toy Lyrics

When I was just a wee little boy, full of health and joy
One Christmas morning I received the marvellous little toy
A wonder to behold it was with many colours bright
And the moment I laid eyes on it, it became my heart's delight

It went zip when it moved and bop when it stopped whirrrrr when it stood still
I never knew just what it was and I guess I never will

The first time that I picked it up I had a big surprise
For right on it's bottom were two big buttons that looked like big green eyes
I first pushed one and then the other, then I twisted its lid
And when I set it down again, this is what it did

It went zip when it moved and bop when it stopped whirrrrr when it stood still
I never knew just what it was and I guess I never will

It first marched left and then marched right, then marched under a chair
And when I looked where it had gone it wasn't even there
I started to cry but my daddy laughed 'cause he knew that I would find
When I turned around my marvellous toy would be chugging from behind

It went zip when it moved and bop when it stopped and whirrrrr when it stood still
I never knew just what it was and I guess I never will

The years have gone by too quickly it seems, I have my own little boy
And yesterday I gave to him my marvellous little toy
His eyes nearly popped right out of his head and he gave a squeal of glee
Neither one of us knows just what it is but he loves it just like me
