I Throw My Toys Around Lyrics
I've got no time for fairy stories
I'm not a little girl
So you can leave me all alone
And turn off the lights as well
If you were frightened then listen
But I don't think you would like it
Such a nice kid
Nobody's looking now (Nobody's looking)
I throw my toys around
Somebody's being very bad
I wonder who it could be
Somebody's going to get in trouble
I know it isn't me
I'm just a little angel
But you don't know what I've done
When your backs turned
Nobody's looking now (Nobody's looking)
I throw my toys around
Pick up those building blocks
Chop off my baby's locks
Swing dolly by her hair
Put down that teddy bear
Slam dunk a happy clown
I throw my toys around
I've got no time for bedtime stories
I'm not a little child
Everything makes me furious
And everything makes me wild
If you are frightened
Then whistle and I'll come running to you
As you boo hoo
Nobody's looking now (Nobody's looking)
I throw my toys around
Nobody's looking now (Nobody's looking)
I throw my toys around
I throw my toys around
I throw my toys around
I throw my toys around
I throw my toys around
I throw my toys around
I throw my toys around
I throw my toys around
I throw my toys around
I throw my toys around
I throw my toys around
I'm not a little girl
So you can leave me all alone
And turn off the lights as well
But I don't think you would like it
Such a nice kid
I throw my toys around
I wonder who it could be
Somebody's going to get in trouble
I know it isn't me
But you don't know what I've done
When your backs turned
I throw my toys around
Chop off my baby's locks
Swing dolly by her hair
Put down that teddy bear
Slam dunk a happy clown
I throw my toys around
I'm not a little child
Everything makes me furious
And everything makes me wild
Then whistle and I'll come running to you
As you boo hoo
I throw my toys around
Nobody's looking now (Nobody's looking)
I throw my toys around
I throw my toys around
I throw my toys around
I throw my toys around
I throw my toys around
I throw my toys around
I throw my toys around
I throw my toys around
I throw my toys around
I throw my toys around

It just means that someone wants to grow up faster than they are already, because they've done something bad to spoil their innocence
I think this song was written for Rugrats the movie. That's where I heard it. It sounds like Angelica.
The cutest-a$$ kid song in the world!!
Well, not to make this discussion all naughty, but I think this song might have a hidden meaning towards sex. You know, sex toys?
I think, personally, that this song is about a girl trying to get people to take her seriously...she's capable of destruction, be it literal or metaphorical.
Five comments? Seriously? This is one of my favorite No Doubt songs ever. I love Gwen's voice, and I think it really complements the lyrics. Pretty straightforward song--she doesn't want to be treated like a little girl anymore. She's mentally matured, at least in her mind, and is sick of people thinking otherwise...at least that's what I think.
I think too many people think every song in the world is about sex.

That verse obviously states something along the lines of, okay, Mom and Dad, I'm grown up now, and I don't need you babying me anymore. If these "toys" were really sex toys, I really don't think "leave me all alone" would fit.
:P
I heard somewhere that the song was written as a tribute to Angelica from Rugrats. Probably also why they featured it in the movie. :P
