They took away my toys
And replaced them with books and pens
Stifled my every joy
And gave them back only on the weekends
They took away my toys
Because I was now "too old to play"
"Go out and be an adult"
Is what the world would say
Well I'm taking back my toys
You can keep the books and pens
My youth will be relived
And I don't plan for it to end
