(Vallee / Kretzmer)      Rocking chairs and rocking horses   Teddy bears and flying saucers   Brik-a-brak and broken souvenirs   Christmas lights and covered wagons   Paper kites and Chinese dragons   Mingle in the shadows of the years      Attic toys in great profusion   Lying here in strange confusion   Cut into the memory like a knife   Smiling dolls and faded cotton   Dusty world I had forgotten   Tell again the story of my life   Smiling dolls and faded cotton   Dusty world I had forgotten   Tells again the story of my life      Gone the time and dead the season   Now I ask the rhyme and reason   Why my little world got left behind   Here among this helter skelter   Taking stock and taking shelter   I may find a moments peace of mind      Attic toys in great profusion   Vanished hopes and disillusions   Peel away the memories like a knife   Broken dreams and paradoxes   Side by side in cardboard boxes   Recollect the story of my life   Broken dreams and paradoxes   Jungle up in cardboard boxes   Tell again the story of my life      Attic toys of pain and pleasure   Lying here like buried treasure   Measure up the story of my life
