Tin Toy Lyrics

I don't wanna see straight through your lies
But I can always tell when you are lying
And I don't wanna swim deep in your eyes
And I don't wanna know why you've been crying

And I don't wanna be there, baby
We both know what I'll do
And I don't wanna be there, baby
Staring at my shoes
And I don't wanna be there crying over you

And you won't let me know
Why you wind me like a tin toy
And then you let me go
To watch me stumble around

And I don't wanna smell your soft perfume
Bittersweet and cold yet all-alluring
And I don't wanna be locked in your room
You can pet me all you want but I'm never purring

And I don't wanna be there, baby
I can't bear to see you
And I don't wanna be there, baby
Starving to be with you
And I don't wanna be there crying over you

And I can't figure out
Why you treat me like a big boy
And then you push me out
To keep me hanging around

Ooh, Girl, you're a sadist
Ooh, Do you never tire?
Ooh, And I'm burning for you
Ooh, 'Cause I'm on fire

And I can't figure out
Why you treat me like a big boy
And then you push me out
To keep me hanging around

And you won't let me know
Why you wind me like a tin toy
And then you let me go
To watch me stumble around
