What did I get for trusting Him
Music written for ‘Toymaker the Musical’
Intro
“I think the toymaker has a plan for me”
“A plan for you?
Please Thomas, that’s ridiculous"
Verse 1
I remember those days
Those ‘merry’ days
When I was a boy and fell for his lies
Once I was younger and ignorant
Now I have seen the light
Verse 2
What did I get for trusting him?
Look at my face, this outlandish paint
Check out my hat and hideous clothes
Am I a clown or a joke?
Verse 4
If I had a choice, I’d be a star
Dressed up to the nines
The spotlight is mine
Dancing and singing the night away
The lights applause
They’re all for me
Verse 5
So Thomas young man
Don’t be naive
The Toymaker doesn’t have plans for you
Don’t say I didn’t warn you about this man You’re in for a huge surprise!
Verse 3
Now I am stuck in this puny box
All I can do is wait and hide
Turn the crank up and I’ll spring a surprise
I’m laughing but I’m seething inside
Chorus
Once I was bitten, now I’m twice as shy
Away from his fond illusions
Cos I have grand dreams
To be someone else
This silly entertaining is just an insult
