The Doll House Is Empty  
 
Intro:       

             
Once you used 

         
to play a game

          
 called break 

             
a heart a day
             
Little boys we

          
re only toys t

            
hat you would 

      
toss away

Now you want t

hem back again

, but they don

’t wanna play
          
The doll house

      
 is empty

             
All the soldie

         
rs marched awa

          
y and they’ve 

           
deserted you
             
Even all your 

          
puppets cut th

            
eir strings an

           
d left you too

You’ve run out

 of playthings

 and you don’t

 know what to 

do
          
The doll house

     
 is empty

   				 
A boy is not a

 wind-up toy y

ou play with o

nce and then d

estroy
         
Love’s not som

     
ething from a 

Five and Ten
 			   	   
Boys and toys 

  
are not the sa

me and you’re 

the only one t

o blame
         
If your playma

       
tes don’t come

 back agai-in

Now you know the reason no one wants you anymore
You are not the little girl that you were once before
Childhood days are over and the writing’s on the door
The doll house is empty, now
