My Boy Only Breaks His Favorite Toys

Oh, here we go again
The voices in his head
Called the rain to end
Our days of wild

The sickest army doll
Purchased at the mall
Rivulets descend
My plastic smile

But you should’ve seen him
When he first got me

My boy only breaks his favorite toys, toys
Oh, oh
I’m queen of sandcastles he destroys
Oh, oh

‘Cause it fit too right
Puzzle pieces in the dead of night
I shoulda known it was a matter of time
Oh, oh

My boy only breaks his favorite toys
Oh, oh

There was a litany of reasons why
We could’ve played for keeps this time
I know I’m just repeating myself

Put me back on my shelf, but first
Pull the string and I’ll tell that he runs
Because he loves me (He loves me)

‘Cause you should’ve seen him
When he first saw me

My boy only breaks his favorite toys, toys
Oh, oh
I’m queen (I’m queen) of sandcastles he destroys
Oh, oh

‘Cause I knew too much
There was danger in the heat of my touch
He saw forever so he smashed it up
Oh, oh

My boy (my boy) only breaks his favorite toys
Oh, oh

(O-oh, oh, o-oh, oh)
Once I fix me
(O-oh, oh, o-oh, oh)
He’s gonna miss me
(O-oh, oh, o-oh, oh)
Once I fix me
(O-oh, oh, o-oh, oh)
He’s gonna miss me

Just say when
I’d play again
He was my best friend
Down at the sandlot

I felt more when
We play pretend
Than with all the Kens
‘Cause he took me out of my box (Oh, oh)
Stole my tortured heart (Oh, oh)
Left all these broken parts (Oh, oh)
Told me I’m better off (Oh, oh)

But I’m not
I’m not
I’m not
