Tism - Leo's Toltoy lyrics

PLease let introduce myself, I'm a man of wealth and taste I just like that first line, My ideas all come from another place I'm gonna tell you a story and the main character, well it's me It all starts way back when I began grade three I had the blocks biggest marble collection, No that's a lie My neighbour Johnny had swapped three jumbos for my one cats eye Then he told me Jumbos were no longer the rage Which shows that I was a fashion victim even back at that age Anyway I remember it was the second week, term two And just like normal I brought my marble bag to school But imagine the shock and horror, for behind my back Everyone else in the playground had bought along clack clacks How was it that by some mysterious mutual chemistry They all knew clack clacks were in, no one ever told me How was it in the space of an otherwise normal night Everyone came to school the next day not a marble bag in sight And now I'm in a rut, where everything is the same Just when im holding my line of tortured, artistic pain You find out that poetry aint no longer the thing And everyone's playing cajun, zydeko, whatever you call the thing? What you call that thing? What you call that thing? What you call that thing? I go off and buy the records, learn how to cook jumbaliyah But everyone's dropping ecstasy and the dance clubs are on fire I start talking about Louisiana, everyone tells me to stop Just the like the coming of click clacks, comes something called hip-hop Shakespeare in plays are the quintessential expression of human tragedy Cant understand it myself but that's what my friends tell me Anyway the only genuine thought I've ever been able to expound Is the world aint a stage it a primary school playground And some people are like the kids who knew when to stop Playin' games like kerplunk and get into battling tops Then there's people like me, who always seem to find Just after we've bought our baseball jackets we've been left behind We've been left behind We've been left behind We've been left behind I couldn't understand it's just like musical chairs When it's groovy to say "Groovy" and okay to wear flares So the final piece of advice i give you should all beware Cos when your in the jungle watch it, it's a playground out there It's not a jungle out there (9x)
