Jack in the Box
I was standing inside a little toy shop
Just the other day
When a mama came in with her little boy
Who just wanted to play
She showed him a boat
She showed him a car
She showed him electric train
He just shook his head
Uh-uh
I don't want those things
I want a jack-in-a-box
(Jack-in-a-box)
Ooh, a little jack-in-a-box
(Jack-in-a-box)
A jack-in-a-box is what I want
Nothing else will do
I don't want a boat
I don't want a car
I don't want electric train
The thing I want is a friendly face
At the end of a spring
She showed him a car with lots of lights
She showed him a train with smoke
She showed him a bike, a big red kite
To fly high in the sky
She showed him some tops
With blue and red stripes
She showed him some marbles too
He just shook his head
Uh-uh
I don't want those things
I want a jack-in-a-box
(Jack-in-a-box)
Ooh, a little jack-in-a-box
(Jack-in-a-box)
A jack-in-a-box is what I want
Nothing else will do
I don't want a car
I don't want a train
Not even a boat that sails
The thing I want is a friendly face
At the end of a spring
I want a jack-in-a-box
(Jack-in-a-box)
Ooh, a little jack-in-a-box
(Jack-in-a-box)
A jack-in-a-box is what I want
Nothing else will do
I don't want a car
I don't want a train
Not even a boat that sails
The thing I want is a friendly face
At the end of a spring
I want a jack-in-a-box (Jack-in-a-box)
Ooh, a little jack-in-a-box (Jack-in-a-box)
I want a jack-in-a-box (Jack-in-a-box)
Ooh, a little jack-in-a-box (Jack-in-a-box)
I want that jack-in-a-box (Jack-in-a-box)
Ooh, a little jack-in-a-box (Jack-in-a-box)
