Joni Mitchell Shiny Toys
Shiny toys--right on time Shiny toys--right on time Shiny toys I'm reading people rags in the checkout lane Look, here's a hunk--here's a honey Celebrated people and their claims to fame Here's a boy and his money And pictures of the winners in the latest Ratepoll games Whatever makes you "Yahoo" Whatever makes your time feel satisfyin' Whatever makes you "Oh I'm so excited" Whatever makes you feel like you're right on time Party night Good bands all over town (good, good, good) Mega lights and supersonic sounds (good, good, good) Flashy boys and girls that really play (good, good, good) Shiny toys, when it's over don't you hate to have to put your toys away Shiny toys--"I love my Porsche" Shiny toys Shiny toys--"I love my Porsche" Shiny toys Simple joys Walking on the beach at the end of the day Between the sand and the seagulls Watching the glorious sun setting on the bay Here comes a boy and his beagle Walking with a man in a toupee And a man with his head shaved Whatever makes you "Mmmm, mmmm" Whatever makes your time feel satisfyin' Whatever makes you "Mmmmm, mmmm" Whatever makes you feel like you're right on time Party night Super bands all over town (good, good, good) Super lights and supersonic sounds (good, good, good) Flashy boys and girls that really play (good, good, good) Shiny toys, when it's over Don't you hate to have to put your toys away Shiny toys--right on time Shiny toys--right on time Shiny toys--right on time © 1985 Crazy Crow Music BMI
