Clockwork Toy

(album: Thunder In The East - 1985)

Sometimes I scream, sometimes I cry
Sometimes I just lie in illusion
Some nights I shake, some nights I sweat
Some nights I'm just wet with confusion

Don't do this, don't do that
Don't look back, you might stumble
Don't say yes, don't say no
Don't let go, or you tumble down

Some days I kick, some days I bite
Some days I must fight the reaction
Sometimes I win, sometimes I lose
Sometimes I'm just bruised by the action

Don't do this, don't do that
Don't look back, you might stumble
Don't say yes, don't say no
Don't let go, or you tumble down

You have the power to destroy
Clockwork people just like clockwork toys

Don't try to tell me your fantasy
It's my life
You try to tell me what's right for me
Turn the knife, twist the key

Don't do this, don't do that
Don't look back, you might stumble
Don't say yes, don't say no
Don't let go, or you tumble down

You have the power to destroy
Clockwork people just like clockwork toys

Now we have the power to destroy
Clockwork people just like clockwork toys
