Lyrics

So he would sulk and drink and mope
And cross his arms and hope to die
And then a fairy came one night
To bring this sorry boy to life
She pulled some strings
Spun him about, that boy sprang up
And began to shout
"My arms, my legs, my heart
My face, they are alive"
And she would cry, "liar, liar!
What have I done?
You're no lover and i'm no fighter."

The story goes on

So he would buy her things and
Kiss her hair to show he was for real
And she would take those gifts and kisses
Though just stringing him along
She knew about those wooden boys
It's an empty love to fill the void
Pinocchio, oh boy how your nose has grown
So he would cry, "liar, liar!
I'll prove it to you."

But then it grew
He had grown tired of her
So it was true
He left her apartment and
He walked all night long
'Til he was stopped by the shore of the ocean
But still he walked on
Amongst the whales and the waves
And screamed, "liar, liar!"
And his wooden body floated away
He just drifted away

And now I wonder how I was made
Now I wonder how I was made
My arms, my legs, my heart
My face, my name is driftwood
