Toyland (Original) - Babes in Toyland - Operetta - Victor Herbert​





Toyland, toyland
Little girl and boy land
While you dwell within it
You are ever happy there!

Childhood toyland
Mystical merry toyland
Once you pass its borders
You can never return again!

Childhood toyland
Mystical merry toyland
Once you pass its borders
You can never return again!

LYRICS: Glen MacDonough
RECORDING: Lillian Watson

I always thought this was a great song when watching March of the Wooden Soldiers on Thanksgiving Day on Channel 11.
Now I'm listening to it on the Internet...I'm amazed.

Lillian Watson had a beautiful voice...the enunciation is so clear you can hear and understand every word.
I've had this looping in the background for hours...so relaxing.

Listen to the words...it's actually a sad song about being forced to grow up.

BABES IN TOYLAND (Lyrics : Victor Herbert / Glen MacDonough - 1903)

When you've grown up, my dears,
And are as old as I,
You'll often ponder on the years
That roll so swiftly by, my dears,
That roll so swiftly by.

And all the many lands
You will have journeyed through
You'll oft recall,
The best of all,
The land your childhood knew
Your childhood knew.

Toyland, toyland,
Little girl and boy land,
While you dwell within it,
You are ever happy then.
Childhood, joyland,
Mystic merry toyland,

Once you pass its borders,
You can ne'er return again.
