Talking Toy Box by Joe Scruggs Lyrics

"Good evening, and welcome to our version of The Talking Toy Box
A story with a little scary music and not so scary tales
Of high technology and low energy
As we begin our story, the family is sound asleep
So relax, snuggle up with someone you love
And enjoy Joe Scruggs' The Talking Toy Box!"

It was a very, very dark night
In that very, very dark house
Up some very, very dark stairs
Something was there!

And in that very, very dark room
So dark that you couldn't see
Something in my toy box said...
"FEED ME!"

And in that very, very dark room
So black it could almost be felt
A tiny little voice that was mine said...
"Mom and Dad! Help!"
And pretty soon, it wasn't dark anymore
Mom and Dad came a-running to the door
And Mom said, "Goodness, what was that?"
And Dad was carrying my baseball bat

And I started to explain
"Well, you see
When something in my toy box
Interrupted me."
And it said...
"FEED ME!"

Dad opened up my toy box
But not very wide
And he just laughed when he saw
What was inside

And he said, "Oh, it's nothing
Nothing at all
Just your animated, electronic
Talking baby doll."
"FEED ME!"

"And I think to tell you the truth
This baby, she needs some juice
Yes, she's in pain
'Cause her batteries are drained."
It took...
Five double A's and six middle C's
Twelve nine volters and ten double D's
When my dad turned out my light...
And somewhere, a voice in my toy box said...
"I love you! Night-night!"
