Toy Night

Clock strike 12,
Chimes ring through

Children sound asleep,
But that you knew,

Creak for the toy chest,
Squeaking loud

But the children lie still,
Sleeping sound

A shadow from the closet,
Darts all about,

When they sleep,
The toys come out

Jack in the box,
From under your bed,

The doll you left there,
When off came her head

In the doll house,
A plastic dinner prepared

Fed to your piggy bank,
Full of money you've spared

All the action figures,
A miniature battle,

From your toy farm,
The pigs and the cattle

But by the yellow
Crack of sun,

They all go back,
After their fun

So when the children are asleep,
Always remember

That the toys come awake,
Bought back in December
