Toy Puddle
by Boss McGravity
---VERSE---
i used to be you - astronaut patch on the jeans
super hero shoes, for the walk back from school - kicking pebbles like fieldgoals through trees
---BRIDGE---
got a bow and arrow, crafted from things in the road
you chase the crows and sparrows, every leaf is a toy boat when it's in your
---CHORUS---
toy puddle, watch out, cause that one goes half a mile down, it's the door to a
secret tunnel, there's a cave city way underground
you could swim, but you'd better be getting home now
---VERSE---
things change so fast, and its nice, but its never the same
and i have to laugh, you won't think of that
your just looking forward to yardwork day, 'cause
---BRIDGE---
when the leaves get heaped at curb, you can jump in the pile
then make believe its a secret ship filled with buttons and dials, and set sail on your
---CHORUS---
toy puddle, ripples reflecting the clouds in the sky, and its fun to jump
right in the middle, watch the sparkling drops as they fly
every day is a game, everything dries
---BRIDGE---
by the time you look back its gone, and you're gonna miss it one day
so get up at the crack of dawn and don't miss a minute to play, get
out there and get
sopping wet sloshing in pa's golashes
those soggy socks slipping down, stomping round on the
---CHORUS---
toy puddle, dad's working hard to seem so unamused, says look at your
poor pajamas, lord mama's sure gonna be sore at you
toy puddle, sure is too bad it don't rain all the time, kinda wish it did
at least just a little, then there'd always be games left to find
cause you know every day is a game, everything dries
