Lyrics

Intro

Plink plonk plink plonk

Plinkety plonk

Verse 1

Three black keys

Thirty white keys

My fingers are giants on these

Tiny plastic scene

My neighbor's dog

Starts to howl along

I think he's harmonizing

Or maybe just unhappy

Pre-Chorus

Every note I strike

Sounds like a question mark

Every chord I push

Sends shivers through the dark

Chorus

Tiny toy piano

Jingle in the morning

Tiny toy piano

Jingle in the night

Tiny toy piano

Can't you hear me roar

From this little wooden box

I'm fighting in a war

Verse 2

Mom says turn it down

Dad says drop the lid

But underneath these baby keys

I'm Beethoven's angry kid

I hammer out a sonata

On this Fisher-Price machine

Six inches of rebellion

The loudest thing unseen

Pre-Chorus

Every note I strike

Sounds like a question mark

Every chord I push

Sends shivers through the dark

Chorus

Tiny toy piano

Jingle in the morning

Tiny toy piano

Jingle in the night

Tiny toy piano

Can't you hear me roar

From this little wooden box

I'm fighting in a war

Bridge

One day I'll upgrade

To a grand with eighty-eight

But I'll miss the squeaky pedal

And the stickers on the crate

Chorus

Tiny toy piano

Jingle in the morning

Tiny toy piano

Jingle in the night

Tiny toy piano

Can't you hear me roar

From this little wooden box

I'm fighting in a war

Outro

Plink plonk

Plink plonk

Victory at last
