Intro [Please Help This Section][]
- Out of the Pacific Northwest, somewhere in the octagon,
- in a cave, in a patch of moss, underneath a rock, in a wake for bacteria leeches,
- nature mutated the most dazzling, human-sized predators of evil-doers the world has never known.
- Armed only with donkey bones, honey bears and the mossy log tomb they traveled in,
- These marooned, masked marvels land on the sandy beaches in search of vitamin C and a few thousand marbles.
- If you have their number, call them sometime.
- They are:
- THE AQUABATS!
Lyrics[]
- When I was a boy
- I used to live in corduroy,
- OP shorts, and slip-on Vans.
- My life was so simple,
- I had not one pimple,
- My everyday was made up of these plans:
- To ride my bike to Thrifty's,
- past the balls and ice cream and
- find the Star Wars figurines.
- Thinking of my action men,
- Kung-Fu grip and all,
- What happened to them all?
(Chorus)
- Running through my old life
- Looking for my lost toys
- Where has all my fun gone?
- Now that I'm much older
- Before we get much colder
- We'll get together and sing this song.
- An anthem for our lost toys,
- Now that we're all big boys,
- We'll get together and sing this song.
- It's not too long - so come along.
- Everybody sing along:
- When I was a little man
- Playdough came in a little can
- I was Star Wars' biggest fan
- Now I'm stuck without a plan
- GI Joe was an action man
- Shaggy drove the mystery van
- Devo was my favorite band
- Take me back to my happy land
- Now my brothers and sisters,
- I don't mean to make a scene.
- But I lost my action figures
- and it makes me want to scream!
- Greedo, Chewbacca, Luke, R2 and Han,
- 3PO, Yoda, Boba Fett and Obi Wan.
- Green Machine, Suckerman,
- Silly Putty, Lincoln Logs,
- Sitting in my Underoos,
- Reading Christmas catalogs.
- What happened to my Kung-Fu grip and all?
- What happened to it all?
(Chorus)
- Take me back to my happy land
- Take me back to my happy land
