( Gun accident song lyrics )
THE INNOCENT TOY
Copyright © 2000 - mickterry.com

1: It was a well-hid toy as toys went.
He'd never thought to look
under Daddy's pillow in their sleeping room,
next to naked ladies books.
It was a real nice gift as toys went.
He would have been surprised.
But now, he had found it all unwrapped
and couldn't believe his eyes.

2: It was a heavy toy as toys went.
It took two hands to hold.
Maybe that's why all the big policemen used
both their hands in the TV shows.
It was a well-built toy as toys went.
It looked real close to real.
No cheap little dinky plaything here,
this toy had been made of steel.

CHORUS:
Just a slight miscommunication
between a father and his three-year-old boy.
Just a slight miscommunication
about a father's innocent toy.

3: It was a real great toy as toys went.
His brother looked really scared
as he joined the others in the living room
playing cops and robbers there.
It was a real loud toy as toys went.
It knocked them both right down.
But when the young toddler stood back up,
his brother stayed on the ground.
CHORUS:

BRIDGE:
Isn't it a bit peculiar
how many things have to be
imprinted with many warnings
in the interest of public safety?
"Keep out of the reach of children."
"Keep tightly under a lid."
Yet there wasn't word one on this obvious fun
for a non-reading little kid.
CHORUS:

CODA:
"One size fits all :
no hand too big ,
no hand too small ... "
