 12227>The Marvelous Toy Lyrics
 
 
 
 When I was just a wee little boy, full of health and joy.
 
 One Christmas morning I received The Marvelous Little Toy.
 
 A wonder to behold it was with many colors 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 it's 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 marvelous 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 marvelous 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
 
 
 
 It still goes zip when it moves and bop when it stops
 
 whirrrrr when it stands still
 
 I never knew just what it was and I guess I never will
